I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 on a new 11,3 Macbook Pro (dual booting) and I see this random HDD (looks like my cryptswap partition) listed under Devices in my file browser.

File Browser

As you can see it's a bit of an eyesore and I can't even access it:

Press Windows key and search for the application called "Disks"

Select the HDD that contains the partition that you want to hide

At the right, select the partition to hide and press the "More Actions" >> "Edit Mount Options..."

In the "Mount Options" window, select "OFF" for "Automatic Mount Options" and uncheck the "Show in user interface" box (also "Mount at startup" if you won't use it)

Capture of "Mount Options" dialog
