Remarks

Synthetic volume name that provides a view of all content across the "external" storage of the device.

This synthetic volume provides a merged view of all media across all currently attached external storage devices.

Because this is a synthetic volume, you can't insert new content into this volume. Instead, you can insert content into a specific storage volume obtained from #getExternalVolumeNames(Context).
