SUMMARY
The value "Storage Card" is not allowed as a volume name returned from the block device driver DISK_IOCTL_GETNAME handler. Returning this value will result in a failure when the file system attempts to register the name.



MORE INFORMATION
The name "Storage Card" is a default string used by the Windows CE file system when no preferred name is available from the block device driver (that is, the block device driver does not respond to the DISK_IOCTL_GETNAME function).
