Azure Migrate replicate external drives

Question

So I'm using Azure Migrate to initially perform an assessment of a physical server. It picks up three drives, \.\PHYSICALDRIVE0, \.\PHYSICALDRIVE1 and \.\PHYSICALDRIVE2, however when I attempt to replicate it, I can only choose \.\PHYSICALDRIVE0.

Assuming \.\PHYSICALDRIVE1 and \.\PHYSICALDRIVE2 are externally connected drives (via USB), are these not supported for replication?

Thanks,
Kam

Hello @KFM ,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer your questions.
Azure Migrate does not support externally connected drives(via USB) for migration. Though, it can detect such drives during discovery phase. Only locally attached drives are supported for migration.
