Default Safely Remove Hardware - Remove Harddrive?

Ok I just got my new computer today and I noticed that in the system tray it has that icon that says safely remove hardware. And when I opened it to see what could be removed it showed my hard drive. Is it a bad thing that it says it in the safely remove hardware. And if so how can I fix it?

Thanks

No, it just means your hard drive is removable (while running I think). Don't do it though, you'll mess up your OS. Don't worry about it, just ignore it.
