    I usually use my iMac as a windows machine using bootcamp. Worked OK, but there were issues with a few apps that didn't like reading my data from a Mac disk via MacDrive. So...I reformated my data partion as NTFS and replace all my backed up data.

    Now I find I'm in a situation where I have to run windows & Mac at the same time using Parallels. When I do so, my ntfs data drive shows up on my mac desktop, BUT the windows VM just can't see it anywhere.

    Configuration....
    256GB SSD has HFSJ and Bootcamp partitions as well as two mystery partitions, a 200mb GPT Protective Partition and a 620 Primary partition
    The internal drive has two partitions, a 200MB GPT and the rest is formated as NTFS.

    I really don't use the mac unless there's a gun to my head. I"m pretty sure I can read/write to it with Paragon's NTFS utility, but windows running under Parallels desktop just doesn't see it anywhere.

    Any ideas?
