Is it possible to install DBAN virtually, and try to clean not the HD it is running on but external hard drives? My situation is really unique. My Linux desktop died and I am now trying to clean its hard drives by connecting them to a Windows 10 laptop via SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 Adapter. Windows does not even recognize the drives until I go into Disk Manager. My other issue is that DBAN's virtual machine only sees the disk I allocated to it during the install, while I hoped it would see the external hard disk as a USB device. I tried sharing folders to give visibility to my target, but no go. My goal is just to clean the drives, and if I can use some other software or whatever, I am open to any suggestions. What is the best way to do this please?
