Attaching a huge Disk (TeraBytes) to a VM

[Henri Delebecque]

Hi,

I installed an ESXi 8.0.3 recently, using it without vCenter.

I'm looking for a way to attach a full SATA drive to a VM.

I haven't found any way to do it (passthrough, option of the device,...)

Is it possible ?

Thanks for your help
