Offline macOS Imaging from External USB Drive Another native feature ConfigMgr admins are used to is the ability to create bootable USB media for OSD builds. Parallels has included this feature with Mac Management in v7. When I plug in a USB drive while my VM is running, Parallels offers a dialog lightbox asking whether the USB drive should associate with the Mac or the VM. Once this choice is made, Parallels tends to remember/respect it on every subsequent reconnect. I picked up an Iomega eGo drive on Friday for my MBP.

First let me say this isn’t the cheapest method as you do need Parallels 10, Thunderbolt external drive and Windows 8.1 Enterprise Edition plus a Mac with Thunderbolt. Microsoft offer a free trial of the software for 90 days, plenty of time to play.

When I plug in a USB drive while my VM is running, Parallels offers a dialog lightbox asking whether the USB drive should associate with the Mac or the VM. Once this choice is made, Parallels tends to remember/respect it on every subsequent reconnect. Sometimes I want to change this association, but I don't see how I can. Is there an easy option to change the USB drive's association on the fly? Or do I need to select something to make Parallels forget all USB associations and start over?

Boot Windows On Your Mac From An External Hard Drive Slightly more difficult method that requires access to a PC running Windows to set up. Worse performance than Boot Camp, but better than most virtual machines.

I had the same problem, with a USB disk drive. Parallels was configured to ask each time yet always put the device to the guest I'd first used it on. Choosing Parallels Preferences didn't help. The device wasn't listed as one that had a permanent assignment.

I think this is expected behavior as the documentation talks about a 'New' device.

The fix for me was to Option-click (Alt-click) the Parallels icon in the Dock and choose Devices -> USB and there I saw the device listed with a tickmark next to it. Selecting the device removed the tickmark. Next time the devise was connected I was asked.

Even though you aren't telling it to remember devices, you can remove any 'permanent' assignments by following this guide. This should list all the devices for which it remembers Host vs VM assignments

I have this same problem on my MAC. In the Parallels preferences, no permanent connections exist. I can usually get around it by unplugging the drive and plugging in to a different USB port. Sounds silly, but works.
