Drawable folder for 8 inch tablets

Question

I am working in an android application and I want to support my application in all devices. But I don't know from which drawable folder 8 inch tablet takes images.

"drawable-mdpi" for mobiles, containing 320px-width images   
"drawable-hdpi" for mobiles, containing 480px-width images  
"drawable-xhdpi" for mobiles, containing 720px-width images  
"drawable-sw600dp" for 7'' tablets, containing 600px-width images  
"drawable-sw720dp" for 10'' tablets, containing 720px-width images    
 ????             for 8'' tablets

"drawable-sw600dp" is the folder that applies the drawable properties of device with minimum 600dp width.

So you dont need to worry about it.The android system will automatically suites drawable from sw600dp to 8 Inch Tablets

The qualifiers hdpi,xhdpi,xxhdpi describes the screen density of the device, not the size of screen. From the official doc

            The better practice is to put the following drawables
           // for Phones
            drawable-ldpi
            drawable-mdpi
            drawable-hdpi

          //for 7 inch tablets
              drawable-large-mdpi
              drawable-large-hdpi(for Nexus 7)

         // for 10 inch tablets
             drawable-xlarge-mdpi
