Hi,
Is it possible to add phyzical drive in to guest operating system.
I use Proxmox 6.2.4 and I'm very happy with it. I have Debian and one Win10 guests.

I need e disk storage. I want to add 6 TB extra disk in to Proxmox and mount it in Debian guest? Like "/mnt/extra6TB"?

hi,

yes it's possible.

for example if your disk is /dev/sda on the PVE host, then you can add it to a VM like so: qm set VMID --scsi1=/dev/sda. (scsi[N] can be different number, check your vm configuration to see if it's free)

beware that this will prevent guest migration.

no, only from command line.
 
Hi,
My VM id is 100 and scsi0 is full.

Than I need to use this command;

#qm set 100 --scsi1=/dev/sdb

if /dev/sdb is the device you want to passthrough, then yes.
