Removable vs Local Volumes

Hey guys

The project I'm toying with deals with drive volumes.  There are two
main NSWorkspace methods I use: -mountedRemovableMedia, and
-mountedLocalVolumePaths

Of course mountedLocalVolumePaths returns my own hard drive.  However,
I notice this:

If I mount an external USB hard drisk (180gig), it gets put under
-mountedLocalVolumePaths.  But, if I mount a USB flash drive (the
memory stick drives), it puts it under -mountedRemovableMedia.  Also,
the iPod shows up under -mountedRemovableMedia.

What is it about the external USB hard drive that makes it show up
under -mountedLocalVolumePaths instead of -mountedRemoavableMedia?

(and to make things even weirder, one time when I mounted the usb
flash drive, it showed up as a harddrive, lol :)

Is there anything you reccomend?
