Direct Access to RDX removable Media

[MisterMoT]

Hello,
(Thanks to Google Translate ^^)
I am new to Proxmox. I have more or less understood the basics of how it works, but there is one thing I cannot do: Is it possible that my Debian VM can directly access my Tandberg drive in SATA? And see it in dmesg?

ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  9 Mar  5 16:13 scsi-1TANDBERGRDX_815066354117102016 -> ../../sdc

Thanks

you can try to pass it through to the vm: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Passthrough_Physical_Disk_to_Virtual_Machine_(VM)

Hi,
Tks four your reply,

But in the meantime, I found another solution: IOMMU

As I had to access the drive so that I could send it the cartridge eject command, I therefore added a SATA card on which I plugged my Tandberg and shared the PCI device in my VM.

And it works great!
Best Regards
