How can i delete the Macintosh HD from the Desktop?

I bought a MacBook Air this year (2015) some months ago, and i searched how to put the Macintosh HD in the desktop and i do it, i used Yosemite.

Now that i have El Capitan i want to delete it from the desktop because i want to have a clean desktop without anything, User uploaded file

I google it but it only shows old ways to do it with OS Lion and Snow Leopard, please help me i don't want to reset all my data and star again

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

Choose Preferences from the Finder menu, click on the General tab if needed, and uncheck the box for it.
