PCIe Passthrough - to more than 1 VM?

Hi:

 

I've not had much experience with "passthrough", but recently I needed to emergency P2V a physical server that had a SAS tape drive connection. I installed the LSI model SAS9212-4i4 SAS adapter in our R730 host server, and "passed through" the PCI device to my rehomed VM. All surprisedly works.

 

Now a question has been asked, can the same PCI device be passed through to another VM?  What I read, particularly regard GPU passthroughs, seems to suggest yes, the passthrough of a device can be configured on multiple VM's.

 

Am I going down the wrong road here?
