Parallels and VMware Fusion compatibility

You are here:

MacDrive works with Windows running virtually under Mac OS X using Parallels Desktop for Mac or VMware Fusion, with the exception in both cases that the Mac OS X system volume will be inaccessible.

In such cases, the Mac OS X system volume is inaccessible because, as with any operating system, Mac OS X requires exclusive access to any volumes it has mounted.

Please note that you will need to configure your virtualization software to have a particular virtual OS take control of a drive before Windows can use it.  This is often in a “Settings” or “Devices” menu.  For detailed help with your particular virtualization product and version, please contact the software manufacturer.
