  StatFs statFs = new StatFs(Environment.getRootDirectory().getAbsolutePath());

Root Storage (Environment.getRootDirectory().getPath()):

• Definition: This refers to the root directory of the Android system. It's where the system files are stored.
• Usage: As a developer, you generally don't need to interact with this directory, since modifying system files can harm the device's stability and integrity.
• Path Example: Typically something like /system.

External Storage (Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath()):

• Definition: This refers to the primary shared/external storage directory where users can store their media and files. It's accessible by both the user and apps, and is often what people refer to as the "SD card" (though it may be internal to the device).
• Usage: You use this directory to store user data that needs to be shared across apps or that users might want to access directly (e.g., pictures, videos, downloads).
• Path Example: Typically something like /storage/emulated/0.

Storage Type	Access Method	Typical Path	Usage
Root Storage	Environment.getRootDirectory().getPath()	/system	System files, not usually modified by apps
External Storage (Phone: default storage available for user)	Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath()	/storage/emulated/0	User files, media, shared app data
External Storage (SDCard)	Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath()	/storage/emulated/1	User files, media in MicroSD card
