Hi! I'm really just throwing this out there because it strikes me as a bit odd. Looking at group permissions, I see that the `sd*` devices belong to the `disk` group (and that group has read and write access):
% ls -l /dev/sd* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 jul 20 08:22 /dev/sda brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 1 jul 20 08:22 /dev/sda1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 jul 20 08:22 /dev/sdb brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 17 jul 20 08:22 /dev/sdb1 But NVMe drives don't follow this pattern: % ls -l /dev/nvme* crw------- 1 root root 235, 0 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme0 <- Why? brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme0n1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 3 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme0n1p1 crw------- 1 root root 235, 1 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme1 <- Why? brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 1 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme1n1 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 2 jul 20 08:22 /dev/nvme1n1p1 Is there a reason why this is the case? From my perspective, it would make sense for all disks to belong to the `disk` group, not just the ones that aren't NVMe. Mind you, there might be something I'm missing. But of course, if I want to get information about those disks, my only options are to either set up my own udev rule or become root.
