My preference is `StorageVolume Device::findByPath(QString)`, to keep all entry points to Solid in Device and somewhat similar to the `Device::listFrom*` functions. > For implementation itself I want to create structure with mountpoints and StorageVolumes which will be updated if new Device is added/removed and we learn this via Solid notifications. Yeah that's what I imagined as well, but this is already taken care of by the base DeviceManager. > I am thinking it should either be part of `DeviceManagerStorage` or separate class similar to DeviceManagerStorage. Not sure which. Either way you can simply wrap the base DeviceManager. Your method should only be a utility function not adding new Structures, everything is in Solid already. > I don't know how to get a mountpoint for StorageVolume. You make me realize you should filter StorageVolume (any block device) that are also StorageAccess (anything that can be mounted) which has the mountpoints in `filePath()`. https://api.kde.org/frameworks/solid/html/classSolid_1_1StorageVolume.html https://api.kde.org/frameworks/solid/html/classSolid_1_1StorageAccess.html > What do you think about it?
