$ head /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules
# There are a number of modifiers that are allowed to be used in some
# of the fields.  See the udev man page for a full description of them.
#
# default is OWNER="root" GROUP="root", MODE="0600"
#

# all block devices
SUBSYSTEM=="block",             GROUP="disk", MODE="0640"
