Running Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac VM with Windows from a SD Card

Hello everyone :
I'm using Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac latest version ( 10.2.2 (29105) ) into a MacBook Air with Yosemite 10.10.4.
If I copy an existing Parallels VM running Windows 10 from my Mac`s SSD to a MicroSDHC card , Parallels is unable to start the VM from the SD Card, it hangs when trying to load Windows , showing only that it's trying to boot from SATA Drive 1..... ( screenshot attached ).
It happens also with another VM running Windows 8.1.
Is there something that I have to change into the VM configuration to allow the VM to run from the micro SD card ?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks and best regards,

 

Hi Rafa,
Please review the type of drives that will show the best performance (in decreasing order) :

• Flash Drive on Thunderbolt
• Flash Drive on USB 3.0
• Flash Drive on USB 2.0
• Rotational Drive on Thunderbolt
• Rotational Drive on USB 3.0
• Rotational Drive on USB 2.0

To proceed and transfer an existing virtual machine to appropriate location on the external volume, please refer to http://kb.parallels.com/122874

 

Hello :
Thanks for your reply. In fact , I've reviewed the USB characteristics of my Macbook Air and it has an USB 3.0 hub, which is used for the SDHC card slot. I followed the steps mentioned in the KB that you pointed out, with same results, Parallels hangs on the same screen that I attached on my previous message.
Do I have to edit something in the VM configuration to allow Windows to start ? Any ideas ?
Thanks and best regards.

 

Hi Rafa, Could you please let us know, what is the file system on SD card? because, if you want to run virtual machine stored on NTFS-formatted partition, you need to install NTFS driver for your Mac. For more information visit: http://kb.parallels.com/120028

 

Hello :
The microSDHC card is using MacOsPlus format , I used Yosemite`s disk utility to format the card.
Thanks and look forward for your response,
