However the drive doesn't show up-possibly because the host OS doesn't even see it right now.ĭoes anyone have any experience with this? How can I get my VM to see the drive? Is it even possible if Disk Utility on the host can't see it?

I was already running an Ubuntu 20.10 VM via VirtualBox which should be plenty capable of reading NTFS so I'm thinking I should be able to just access it in my Ubuntu VM. I think I was able to get it to work with a Mac once before by installing a 3rd party NTFS plugin for MacOS, I can't find any open source/freeware options. I was able to install linux but no BIOS is able to boot from it. I want to install linux on it and boot any PC with it. Now I use primarily use my 16' Macbook Pro and I want to access that data again, but the drive won't even show up in MacOS (not even in Disk Utility).

I have a WD Passport I bought several years ago when I was running only Linux, and used the NTFS format because it's better than FAT32 for most purposes since I was only using Linux.
