Question Can I hide my SSD?

[riol2802]

I want to buy a SSD but my father doesn't want it, even though it's my computer and my money. I know, WTF... So, can I hide the SSD so no one but me can access and see it, but it can still be working?

Buy it and slap it on. What he can do? He will probably argue for few minutes why is there , then hopefully it will let him go overtime.

When you install it, go into file explorer, click on the ssd, go down to properties and name it hard drive. Hell never know unless he opens up the computer.

Maybe it’s time to move out...

Unless you set it up as the boot drive and install programs on it would be silly to have an SSD just for hidden storage. And if it's a boot drive, no way to hide that. If it's your system and you are paying for it, an SSD is pretty cheap now, it's not like years ago when a 120 gb ssd was $100.

If your father knows where to look, he'll find it (hint: BIOS, Disk Management). If you boot off SSD, and do not want to have another drive letter for your HDD, you can "mount" it as a folder in the SSD from within DIsk Management.
