How come no drives are shown on Lion/Mac OS X 10.7.x's desktops anymore?

Hello!


I have been using old Mac OS X 10.5.x and 10.2.x for many years, but noticed 10.7.x/Lion do not show connected/mounted drives anymore on desktop. I do see them in Finder, but that's annoying now. Why did Apple change this design? 😟


Thank you in advance. 🙂

In finder's menubar, Finder > Preferences > General tab > check the drives.
