==== USB storage devices (e.g. Flash Drives) ====

You can use [https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie udiskie] to automatically mount external storage medias.

You will need to install and enable [https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/udisks/ udisks2].

{{File|3=services.udisks2.enable = true;|name=/etc/nixos/configuration.nix|lang=nix}}

Then, in Home Manager you can enable udiskie.

{{File|3=services.udiskie.enable = true;|name=/etc/nixos/home.nix|lang=nix}}

Udiskie will automatically mount attached USB storage media.

See related info on [[USB storage devices]].

==== MTP (Android Phone Storage) ====

File managers that support [https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gvfs GVfs], such as [[Thunar]], can mount MTP devices using GVfs. See the page on [[MTP]] for related information.
