External Drive icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Stacked drive enclosure with vent lines and a status light, for backup targets, external storage and disk exports. Typical uses: backup destination selector, external storage status and export to drive action.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

  • A local disk or USB target in a backup app's destination picker, beside a cloud option
  • Disk space and mounted volumes in system settings or a server's storage page
  • Network storage boxes and NAS shares in a home server or a media library app

For old records filed away from the active list but kept in the app, use the Archive icon. For online quota and files synced to a hosted service, use the Cloud icon. For a modem or wireless box in a home internet setup, use the Router icon.

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.

How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?

Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.

What icons go well with it?

Icons from the same family and the Devices set: Google Drive, AirPod, Calculator, Desktop Mobile, Electricity and Game Console.

When was it added?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026.
