    Hello,

    So I wanted to hook up a USB drive and plugged it in for the first time when Parallels was running. Parallels asked if I wanted to use it in Windows and I said Yes.
    Now I can never see this drive in OS X. Not mounted and not in Disk Utility. Even when Parallels isn't open the drive is missing. But with it open is appears as USB 2.0 Mass Storage. I've never seen this drive in OS X as I opened it in Parallels first. Anyway Parallels made this disk permanently invisible to OS X?

    Regards

    Hi. When you connect this drive to your Mac it automatically appears at Windows, right?

    Did you change settings: Parallels Desktop -> Preferences -> Devices -> Ask me what to do ?
