Does anyone know whether Parallels Workstation offers the possibility of using an external hard drive (USB). Basic Information: Parallels Workstation for Windows Version 2.2, Host OS: Windows XP and Guest OS: OpenSuse 10.3. I want to connect an USB device (the external hard drive Trekstor datastation m.u). Although Trekstor Datastation m.u is listed as Dura Micro, Inc. (Acomdata) USB device within the guest OS, I don't get any access to this hard drive. The actual file system of this hard drive is FAT32.
See this thread: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=18684 You could share the drive using SMB on the mac side and use it remotely on the Linux side though.... Also: You might want to post your question here http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?f=67. This forum is for the Mac version of Parallels.
