hard drive – How to prevent auto mounting of a ReFS volume in macOS Sequoia?


I have a macOS/Windows-bootable Mac Pro. Two internal HDDs form a mirror disk formatted in ReFS. How do I prevent macOS Sequoia from nagging me to initialize/eject/ignore those two HDDs each time I start up the machine under macOS?

I understand I can do that by adding the /etc/fstab file in the following format:

UUID=F21AD81B-B114-456C-B2A0-BF4452E4842D none auto rw,noauto

However, I cannot find the volume UUIDs of those two unmounted HDDs in Sequoia. (Disk Utility only shows the volume UUID of mounted disks.) Here is what diskutil info gives me on one of those two HDDs:
