July 28, 20241 yr Hi all, is anyone else getting or knows how to resolve the error "A device attached to the system is not functioning" when trying to access an array share that is passed through as a disk via the VM configuration? The drive is accessible after a fresh restart and you can browse/create/delete files via the VM mount. It appears to also remain working as long as there is at least periodic activity like a file copy or download. But, after an undetermined amount of inactive time (more than 15 minutes) the VM is, at first very slow to access the drive then after finally opening and trying to browse a folder results in the above error message. It is a Windows 10 Pro VM, latest updates with the VirtIO drivers installed. None of the array disks are sleeping and the share is perfectly accessible from other network machines and the WebUI. The VM can access other shares from the UNRAID box that are mapped as a network location. I don't see anything glaringly obvious in Services that should be running but isn't. Restarting the VM isn't a major before doing something as its mostly just a convenience thing but would like to not have to 'work around' the error
