Hi @vishwa,

I can't say passing an SSD controller from host to guest is something I have done before, my experience has always been passing through more simple USB devcies etc.

Can you please give me a little more information like what virtualisation software you are using (VirtualBox etc) and what the host and guest operating systems are?

Cheers

Hi @vishwa,

Here is an article on PCI passthrough for KVM/RHEL.
