gnome-disk-utility displays 16 non-existent SSDs

[piedar]

Under 'Peripheral Devices' gnome-disk-utility shows 16 Solid-State Disks that do not exist - /dev/ndb0 through /dev/ndb15. All have Capacity = 0 bytes and Connection = Unknown. This does not occur on Ubuntu 10.04 on the same machine.

probably nbd not ndb - network block device: it's a device that lets you connect to a block device over the network, and probably it's set up with a max 16 devices. If you don't intend to use it, turn it off in your kernel config and those should go away.
