I also include an additional shadow to overlapping objects, such as
'drive-optical.' This is to create a bit of depth, while also help to
visually separate/identify the overlapping objects. The color for this
also varies depending on how dark or light the back object is. However,
a starting point could also be #333333 or more accurately #2D2D2D at
50%-75% blur size of 2-3px.
As I usually insert the shadows after creating the vector icon shapes
and so I do not have the blur info.
Just as an example, for 48x48 px GNOME icons is suggested a shadow added
with GIMP with 4 pixel distance, 4 pixel blur, 40% opacity -

That is a shadow I personally feel a little too light.
