Storage: added USB mass storage device class (see Section 5.1, “Hard disk controllers: IDE, SATA (AHCI), SCSI, SAS, USB MSC”)


The USB mass storage device class is a standard to connect external storage devices like hard disksor flash drives to a host through USB. All major operating systems support these devices for a long time and ship generic drivers making third-party drivers superfluous. In particular legacy operating systems without support for SATA controllers may benefit from USB mass storage devices.
The virtual USB storage controller offered by VirtualBox works different than the other storage controller types: When storage controllers appear as a single PCI device to the guest with multiple disks attached to it, the USB-based storage controller does not appear as virtual storage controller. Each disk attached to the controller appears as a dedicated USB device to the guest.
Warning
Booting from drives attached via USB is not supported as the BIOS lacks USB support.

没有看明白到底啥意思，有明白人给说一下。
