+<title>Block Devices</title>
+
+<para>
+The module window displays the available file devices and some
+information about each device. It also allows you to control mount
+points, and mount/unmount devices.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Normally, the following pieces of information are shown in this tab:
+</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para>an icon depicting the type of storage</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>file format</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>total size</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>mount point</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>free disk space</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>the percentage of space used as a number and as a
+graph.</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>
+<mousebutton>Left</mousebutton> clicking on the header of a particular
+column sorts the devices according to that variable. A second
+<mousebutton>left</mousebutton> click sorts in the opposite order.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<mousebutton>Right</mousebutton> clicking on a row pops up a menu. If
+that device is not currently mounted, the <guimenuitem>Mount
+device</guimenuitem> option is available. If the device is mounted, it
+can be unmounted by choosing <guimenuitem>Unmount
+device</guimenuitem>. Selecting <guimenuitem>Open
+filemanager</guimenuitem> opens a new window with a graphical view of
+the files on that device.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The appropriate mount and unmount commands, and how the file manager is
+opened from the context menu, can be configured from the &kdiskfree;
+application.
