Passthrough USB HDD about windows

[Wiggen94]

This is my configuration: windows: image: dockurr/windows container_name: windows devices: - /dev/kvm cap_add: - NET_ADMIN networks: - proxy ports: - 8006:8006 stop_grace_period: 2m restart: unless-stopped volumes: - /opt/containers/windows:/storage devices: - /dev/sdb environment: RAM_SIZE: "8G" DEVICE2: "/dev/sdb"

Looks like you removed

    devices:
      - /dev/kvm

That should be there as well.

You can add this to your compose file:

environment:
  DEVICE2: "/dev/sdb"
devices:
  - /dev/sdb

and it should work. But only do it when you have a backup of your USB drive. Because if something goes wrong and Windows format the device for example, its better to be safe.

Thanks Kroese for your help.

Whenever I add the device to the docker-compose config file, docker does not work. The log says:
❯ Starting Windows for Docker v1.03... ❯ For support visit https://github.com/dockur/windows ❯ ERROR: KVM acceleration not detected (device file missing), this will cause a major loss of performance. ❯ ERROR: See the FAQ on how to enable it, or continue without KVM by setting KVM=N (not recommended).

This is my configuration:
windows: image: dockurr/windows container_name: windows devices: - /dev/kvm cap_add: - NET_ADMIN networks: - proxy ports: - 8006:8006 stop_grace_period: 2m restart: unless-stopped volumes: - /opt/containers/windows:/storage devices: - /dev/sdb environment: RAM_SIZE: "8G" DEVICE2: "/dev/sdb"

Yes, it was devined devices twice, grouping then in only one, now it is working and HDD is detected and accessed in Windows.
Thanks!
