Size is a good way of telling the devices apart if they don't have a label - even non-technical users would find this easy to use.
The problem I see here is with long labels in thunar for any device. For example if I insert a CD labelled "Photographs from Holiday" this pushs the divider over to the right to fit all the letters in, which looks a little ugly and means my three columns on icons in the right-pane becomes just two. Also, when I remove the device thunar doesn't move the divider back again. Perhaps the device label should be shortened to "1G rem... ..media"? When you hover the mouse over the name it could give the full label in a tooltip. Alternatively I guess you could have a configuration option for changing the label thunar shows for all removeable devices, so the user can change: "{S} removeable media" (where {s} would be the size) to "{S} flash" if they so wished?
