The HDD i installed via https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/secondary-storage/ started making noise.

man qvm-pool --remove has a FIXME note.

Deleted all the AppVMs on the secondary storage and would like to know the exact steps to remove this drive.

I read the FIXME as applying to the "does not delete any content" text
itself, not the functionality of making Qubes forget about the pool. So
run this first.

Rest would be standard LVM commands, same as any Linux distro- e.g.
lvremove instead of lvcreate, etc.
