+Emulation of block devices
+--------------------------
+
+QEMU can emulate common block devices by adding the following parameters to
+the qemu-system-<arch> command line:
+
+* MMC
+
+  .. code-block:: bash
+
+      -device sdhci-pci,sd-spec-version=3 \
+      -device sd-card,drive=MMC1 \
+      -drive if=none,file=disk.img,format=raw,id=MMC1
+
+* NVMe
+
+  .. code-block:: bash
+
+      -drive if=none,file=disk.img,format=raw,id=NVME1 \
+      -device nvme,drive=NVME1,serial=nvme-1
+
+* SATA
+
+  .. code-block:: bash
+
+      -device ahci,id=ahci0 \
+      -drive if=none,file=disk.img,format=raw,id=SATA1 \
+      -device ide-hd,bus=ahci0.0,drive=SATA1
+
+* USB
+
+  .. code-block:: bash
+
+      -device qemu-xhci \
+      -drive if=none,file=disk.img,format=raw,id=USB1 \
+      -device usb-storage,drive=USB1
