The bios has nothing to specify whether a drive is internal or external.  Is there some way for me to tell the system that it's an internal drive?

Check bios, some have a removable hardware flag that you can set to allow them to be hot swap. Sata, SAS and U.2 NVME drives support this at a hardware level natively so the bio may just need to have a setting updated.

    Os = Kubuntu 22.04

    I have a problem with the two partitions on /dev/sdd showing up in
    Gnome
    Disk Utility and in Disks & Devices in the Kubuntu system tray as
    removable.  The real removable drive, a USB stick doesn't show at
    all.
    Somehow I got Gnome Disk Utility to show all disk, including the
    USB stick.

    In /sys/block/sdd there's a file named removable.  In it is just a
    number 1.  The other internal drives have a 0 in the removable file.


    Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this?


    Thanks.
