Setting up virtual machines on a virtual disk

Virtual disks are the disk partitions of virtual machines. They are stored as a file on the file system of your host operating system. Since an entire disk partition is saved as a file, it is easy to back up, move and copy. You can even share virtual disks from a file server.

To set up a virtual machine on a virtual disk, you must first enable a virtual drive.
