My unattend.xml looks like this:
27221-autounattend-oobe-select-disk.xml

I would like to clean a secondary data drive and select the drive that Windows 10 Setup should clean and install to. I would like Windows setup to clean and repartition the drive I select just like I specified in the unattend.xml file. Is this possible, or is there another way to do this?

    If you are using SIM to create the unattended file, you can add other disks using the DiskID. So if this is the second disk it would be 1. More information on DiskID here.

    Hi,
    You could use Windows SIM tool to modify your unattend.xml. Try to modify the disk configuration (wipe disk, disk id, create partition, modify partition). The following is my part of unattended file.
