V2V conversion USB passthrough problems

Recently did a v2v conversion from esx4 to esx6 with vmware converter.  Everything went great, the server powered up and is running now.  Plugged in a usb drive and enable passthrough, the device instantly fails giving an error "Windows has stopped this device because it reported problems."  this is a usb 5TB drive.  I have purchased another 2 TB drive and tested, and get the same thing.  I have removed the drives and controller from the vm, rebooted the vm and the host, added everything back, and it is still happening.  Any ideas why this would happen?
