Bug Description
This is my /etc/fstab:
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=<my-uuid-here> / ext4 defaults,
# /home was on /dev/sdb1 during installation
UUID=<my-uuid-here> /home ext4 defaults,relatime 0 2
# /home/mac/runtime was on /dev/sda3 during installation
UUID=<my-uuid-here> /media/runtime-mac ext4 defaults,
sda1 and 3 are ext4 partitions of the same SSD, while sdb1 is an ext4 partition of a regular spinning HD.
My problem is that while the mounting process works flawlessly, the sda3 partition is displayed as a "removable device" in gnome (although of course a regular user can't even unmount it).

I believe that is intended behavior, because SATA devices are hot-pluggable. Thunar/xfce also shows my non-root partitions as removable.
