How to Install Your VirtualBox VM on an External Drive

Failed to create machine folder at D:/testing. i get this

Awesome video I love how you explain everything. Bravo!

is there a way to install the OS on external HD using virtualbox and use that external drive later in a real machine?

Thank you

Sir will the files be saved in SSD that were downloaded on VM, means that will the data retain in ssd??

Hello thank you for your video on installing a virtual machine one a usb! I have an external drive and wanted to know if I can do the same thing without my laptop using its memory? I have been having alot of trouble installing different vm's because I only have 8 gigs of ram on my laptop?

But how do you make it a bootable drive?

it didnt work do i need the usb module installed? also on windows

hm theres an error:
Can't create medium ...
Failed to create medium storage at E:\Virtual Machines\Windows XP\Windows XP.vdi

Will it work if you move it to another computer

Sir.. I am 78 years old. I tried this out. It took me several days to master how to go about installing a Virtual Machine on a USB but I got it right. My Windows XP works on 32 GB. Thanks. God bless.

thanks - to the point

This is super good.

Good on sir, super understandable

Thanks you for this video! I just got my new Mac and I have like 30 virtual machines with Linux and windows so this was useful because I didn’t put want to max my drive out on my Mac.

Do you mind posting a link to your video on virtual hard disks? You mentioned it in this video but I cant quite find it

hello, i just tried this using my chromebook but when i go to change the machine folder none of my external devices show up as an option for me to even use. ive been trying to do this with an sd card that i have but like i said it dosent even show up as an option and i can't find it for the life of me!

Is this the same process on windows?
