Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

The Storage Manager should have a disk icon for additional library folders on non-SD card storage. However Btrfs formatted drives show an SD card icon instead. This was observed with hard drives and solid state drives via NVMe, SATA, and USB 3.0 connections.

Local disks formatted in ext4, xfs, or f2fs correctly shows the disk icon. The default ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps library folder located on Btrfs drive also shows disk icon. /dev/mmcblk0 devices will show SD card icons.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Go to Storage Manager.
  2. Add library folder from Btrfs formatted drives (SSD, HDD) via NVMe, SATA, or USB.
  3. Observe the SD card icon next to library folder.
