I just looked at the documentation a bit. There are some parts that I think could be cleared up.
There were also some files missing the copyright header, so dont forget to add them!

At least for me, i would not be able to tell with 100% certainty what the "freshness"/"age" of a volume is.
"time since lastwritten makes sense ofc, but so would "time since last use" etc.
I added some suggestions to the ini file which may clear this up.
