- Click the NTFS tab on the left.
- Uncheck Automatically include fixed volumes.
- Uncheck Automatically include removable volumes.
- Uncheck Automatically remove offline volumes.
- Click OK.

In the "Enable only" window, can I register the folder address? Then there will be indexing on this disk only in this folder?

Use the "Include Only" field under Tools -> Options -> NTFS -> Volume to specify which folders on this volume to index.
