[SOLVED] Binds shown as removable drives.

I would like to have my /home parition on my SSD but still have heavy folders like Videos, Pictures... on my HDD.
I've setup a Data partition mounted in /media/data and have bound /media/data/x in /home/antoine/x.
Here is one if my fstab entries :

media/data/Musique /home/antoine/Musique none bind 0 0

My problem is that all binds are reported as removable drives either in nautilus or by the Removable drive menu extension, as you can see in this screenshot :

This is pretty annoying, and I would like to mask this bindings.  I've already search a little on the forums and the wiki, but there is no fstab options that can do the trick a udev rules don't seem to apply to binds. I've found some old posts about using systemd to mount them, but this seems to not be working anymore.
Anyone has an idea how to hide this bindings ?

Mod Edit - Replaced oversized image with link.
CoC - Pasting pictures and code

Re: [SOLVED] Binds shown as removable drives.

Hello,

There is an option to do that in fstab : x-gvfs-hide

Note that there are already some topics in the forum on this very subject.
Also, note that Gnome does not handle bind very well. Specifically, I have yet to find a way to activate the Trash on bind-mounted directories. Numerous topics on that subject, none of the suggested solutions work for me on Arch/Gnome.

Regards,

Thank you that worked!
Next I'll search a little more before asking such questions.
