Bug Description

I have an 8GB Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 USB stick. When I insert it as a USB OTG drive, it shows up in File Manager as "4C1B-155C". In External Drives it shows up as "DataTraveler 2.0". When I insert it into my Macbook it shows up as "Untitled 1". Either of the latter two names is reasonable to show to a user. A hex code is not.
