StorageController Class

Package: GHIElectronics.Endpoint.Devices.Storage
Namespace: GHIElectronics.Endpoint.Devices.Storage

The SD card slot or the USB drives. Events come on the library's storage thread. A drive that is pulled out is unmounted by the library. The SD card is at /media/sd/; USB drives get the first free /media/usbN/, as Windows gives the first free drive letter. A controller stays alive until it is disposed.
