Coke84 Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 Hey,  my Win10 VM works pretty well but always lacks of free storage capacity. Since I had one SSD left, I decided to dedicated the SSD to my Win10 VM by passthrough the drive.  Using unassigned devices, the SSD has enabled passthrough but nothing else. In my Win10 VM template, I added the SSD as second vdisk by using manual path to the drive itself (/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_850_[...]) with bus SATA.  Everytime I boot my VM, firstly I am not able to access the SSD. Which is annoying as I currently use this SSD for my Steam Library, Win10 Downloads folder, etc. It's not about that Win10 does not have access to it, as executing the partition manager, I can see the SSD and am able to mount and assign a drive letter to it to make it usable under Windows. But without firstly opening the partition manager and manually "mount" the drive, it is not accessable.  Did I miss any configuration?  Thank you for your support!  this is what the log says -blockdev '{"driver":"host_device","filename":"/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_850_EVO_500GB_S2CKNXAG916413Z","node-name":"libvirt-1-storage","cache":{"direct":false,"no-flush":false},"auto-read-only":true,"discard":"unmap"}'
