The udisks snap provides a daemon and tools to access and manipulate disks and storage devices.
The tools carried by the snap allows the user to:
- Shows high-level and detailed information about disk drives and block devices. 
- Mount and unmounting of block devices. 
- Block device lock and unlocking. 
- Manipulating loop-devices. 
- Power off devices for safe removal. 
- SMART functionality. 
What Udisks2 Offers¶
The upstream udisks2 provides interfaces to enumerate and perform operations on disks and storage devices. Any snap with the udisks2:dbus interface plug can access the udisksd daemon via the name org.freedesktop.UDisks2 on the system message bus.
