Remove HDD from system

• remove HDD using UI, datacenter -> storage (needs 2 steps, unused and remove)
• if after that, the proxmox still takes a long time during boot waiting for the HDD:
  • check /etc/systemd/system/*.mount for a service to start that HDD on boot
  • disable service and remove it:

  systemctl disable [hdd-ref].mount
  rm /etc/systemd/system/[hdd-ref].moutn
