I am having an issue creating bundle products and keeping stock.

We sell video surveillance DVR recorders. They consist of the DVR and a regular computer hard drive. We need to keep stock of the DVRs and the Hard Drives.

We will be selling 3 separate products based off these two:

1. Hard Drive (simple product)
2. Digital Video Recorder (simple product)
3. Digital Video Recorder with Hard Drive pre-installed (bundle product)

Our DVRs only allow the installation of one hard drive so we only sell the bundle product in 1 configuration (1 dvr and 1 hard drive), although a bundle product allows the custom to enter a quantity or each item included in the bundle.

Is there any way to create a bundle product any hide any options from customers? I want it to be a bundle product and keep stock of each item included but appear as a single product to the customer.
