I'm fine with your change to the SanDisk section as frontdesk also
reported something similar lately.

Regarding the Sony SD card, I would like to be a bit more careful before
adding it. Where did you get that information from? What was happening?

Could you ask this person to run the following command:

sudo find /sys/devices -path "*sd*/removable" -print -exec cat '{}' \;

This returns the status of the removable flag on the device.

Also note that your patch is much longer than what it needs because you
rewrapped many lines that were not changed otherwise. This makes it much
harder to review and will break `git blame` for no reason on many lines.
Please try to reduce it to the minimum.

I know that I'm sometimes a bit maniac with rewrapping myself, but I'm
on rehab :)
