longer supported. You can't mount them to a VM, only create them, not
even sure why they offer it as an option.
From release notes:
"No support for using a virtual hard disk linked to a physical hard
disk
You can create a virtual hard disk that is linked to a physical hard
disk by using Virtual PC. However, it is no longer possible to use a
virtual hard disk that is linked to a physical hard disk in a virtual
machine.
