Description

**Describe the issue**
Trying to attach a SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD to the machine results in Windows 11 failing to recognize it. The device otherwise works perfectly both on macOS and physical Windows PC.
I used to work with another USB SSD on this same VM which worked quite well in this regard, so it shouldn't be a Windows problem.

I'll attach a few images of what happens:

As a sidenote, I don't know if it's feasible but it would be great if UTM was able to auto-unmount the device from the host when attaching it to the guest.

**Configuration**
* UTM Version: both 4.5.4 and 4.6.0 (102)
* macOS Version: 15.0.1 (24A348)
* Mac Chip (Intel, M1, ...): M1
