Thanks for the report. I'll push the following patch soon. I'm marking this bug as "done". Regarding the use of the word "disk": I think that's a general problem, because df is not working with "disks" but rather with "file systems". The underlying hardware (SATA disk, SSD, RAID, whatsoever) is not relevant here. I think that needs further discussion.
