Why does my drive have one name in Finder and another in Disk Utility?
Short answer: Disk Utility lists both the physical device (named after its model) and the volume on it (the name you see in Finder). You can rename the volume, but not the device. Avoid renaming your Storage Studio drive's volume after moving things to it.
Disk Utility shows two things: the device (the physical drive, named after its model, like a brand and capacity) and the volume on it (the name you see in Finder). With View → Show All Devices turned on, the device sits at the top with its container and volumes underneath.
Rename the volume in Finder or Disk Utility as you like; the device name comes from the hardware and can't be changed. For a drive Storage Studio uses, avoid renaming the volume after moving things to it — see why not to rename the fast drive.
