Hi, thanks for the issue.
When deciding which icon to use for which drive, Resources only considers whether a drive is external (i. e. removable) as a last resort and tries to find other clues first.
In short, the algorithm for it works like that:
Try to match the block device name to a device, e. g. sr0 is always going to be a CD/DVD/Blu-ray drive
Is the drive "rotational"? Then it's an HDD, use the HDD icon (the icon currently used for your 8 GB drive)
If not, is it removable? Then use the flash drive icon, otherwise it's probably an SSD, use the SSD icon (the icon currently used for your other drives)
Your 8 GB flash drive has the same issue as my 32 GB one, in that they're recognized by the kernel as "rotational", which Resources uses as a clue to assume they are HDDs, hence the wrong icon.
The icons for your 1 TB and 4 TB drives are used for (presumed internal) SSDs. They are working as intended (I'm assuming that your drives are SSDs, if not, tell me).
I understand that icon's selection works automatically thanks to your explanation. Although SSD assignment is correct, my suggestion aims to change its icon to an aesthetically better one like HDD which I confirm is wrongly assigned to external drives as you mention.
Is there an existing issue for this?
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Version 1.3.0 displays an internal drive icon that doesn't match the representation of these kind of devices like the external one does.
