Bug Description
/dev/loopX can show up in the indicator in some cases, for instance if the user installed some snap packages. Here's the "df -h" output on my laptop:
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 7.8G 0 7.8G 0% /dev
tmpfs 1.6G 11M 1.6G 1% /run
/dev/sda1 103G 70G 28G 72% /
tmpfs 7.8G 214M 7.6G 3% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock

/dev/sdb6 184G 146G 29G 84% /partition2
/dev/sdb5 184G 160G 15G 92% /partition1
/dev/sdb7 177G 126G 43G 75% /partition3
tmpfs 1.6G 160K 1.6G 1% /run/user/1000
Furthermore, since the /dev/loopX devices show up as full, this triggers the "Check your disks!" message in the indicator.

Thanks for mentioning! I am not at home at the moment, but I will fix this after the weekend. Looking at your bug report, it should be easy to fix, thanks for that!
