How to Mount USB Flash Drive in Hyper-V Virtual Machine Windows 10/Server 2016
Sometimes we need to connect USB Flash Drive in Hype-v Virtual Machine.
One of the chief features of virtualization is the abstraction of the hardware. It focuses on CPU, disk, and memory because all operating systems and applications require them. Even on non-virtualized systems, these resources are shared. Other hardware components present a greater challenge for virtualization because they are not shared, even among separate applications. USB devices fall into that latter group. USB devices expect to communicate with only one subsystem or application at a time. As a result, we face special difficulties with USB in virtualized environments.

How to add a virtual USB Drive to a Hyper-V VM
Hyper-V can set up most USB disk drives in passthrough mode, but it does so via Windows’ storage subsystem. As I said in the opening paragraph, only one component can communicate with a USB device, so the Windows disk subsystem brokers I/O for all USB storage devices. For this reason, Windows must identify your USB drive as a “Mass Storage Device” in order for it to connect in passthrough mode. Other USB storage devices will not work.
As the most of you know, Hyper-V does not support usb redirection. But with some relative easy steps we can redirect our usb disk to a Hyper-V virtual machine.
First on your Hyper-V Server host open Server Manager and select Disk Management
In this Tutorial, I am going to show you, How to do it. I have use here Windows Server 2016 Hyper-v VM.
