I am trying to access an external Western Digital easystore USB 3.0 8TB HDD via USB passthrough to a Windows Server 2012R2 VM. If I start the VM, it hangs on boot up. It just shows the Windows logo and spinning dots indefinitely. At one point, I was able to log into desktop and see the WD disk icon in File Manager (except it shows no drive letter or size). And if I tried accessing it from File Explorer or Disk Manager or diskpart command, it will also hang corresponding process indefinitely.
What Works:
The Error that repeats indefinitely (see below demsg log):
[ 773.921363] usb 4-5: reset SuperSpeed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
I have tried searching the above error and testing numerous configurations. Ran out of ideas now. Any help appreciated.

dmesg (following error repeats indefinitely):
What Works:
- Everything works on the pve host. I can mount the WD 8TB USB and list its contents.
- USB Passthrough does work using a USB flashdrive. On another test, same system and VM except with a SanDisk USB 128GB UltraFit works fine. See below sdc1 (0781:5583).
