Configuring Virtual Machine 177
Hard Disk Options
The Hard Disk Options tab of Configuration Editor lets you specify the type of hard disk to be
used in the virtual machine.
Note. Configuration Editor is available only when the virtual machine is stopped.
The current version of Parallels Desktop allows virtual machines to use hard disk images in
.hdd format and Boot Camp Windows partition. Read the Supported Types of Hard Disks
(page 19) topic to learn about disk formats and other options. You can connect up to four IDE
devices (hard disks or CD/DVD-ROM drives) to a virtual machine. In the Configuration Editor
each hard disk is listed separately and has a number.
Device Status:
To temporarily disable operations with this hard disk without deleting it from the
configuration, clear the Enabled check box.
Emulation:
Use Image file. For any guest operating system you can replace the virtual hard disk image
used by the virtual machine by another image. If you replace an image file for the system
disk, make sure that the same operating system is installed on a new image. If you replace a
data disk, make sure that the file system on a data disk will be compatible with the operating
system.
