Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.
USB devices are not natively supported in Azure Stack HCI. Azure Stack HCI is a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solution that runs on validated hardware, and it does not provide direct access to USB devices.
You can utilize a USB over IP solution to redirect USB devices from a physical host to a virtual machine (VM) operating on Azure Stack HCI. This approach necessitates additional hardware and software components, including a USB over IP server and client software.
Vendors of validated Azure Stack HCI hardware offer USB passthrough capabilities, enabling you to pass USB devices from the physical host to a virtual machine (VM). However, this feature may not be supported by all hardware vendors and might require particular configurations.
