I recently added a new SATA HDD (Y) to increase storage, but when setting a restore point this new drive is showing 'ON' as well as the conventional 'C' drive. How to turn this off?

Yep, that's what I thought. But there's no option, other than turning System Restore off. Which I'd rather not do as I'll lose current restore points. Disconnecting Y drive might do it. I just thought someone might know of a tweak or registry setting.
