Hi,

my host is Windows 7 x64 and i have installed VirtualBox latest version.
in VirtualBox i have a guest F14 with latest updates.

when i connect my external USB disk to PC, VirtualBox detects it and make it
available for guest (F14) as Mass storage.
However, under F14 i'm not able to find this disk.
1. how can i check for sure that USB disk is available or not ?
2. how should i mount it if it is not already mounted ?

basically data on this USB disk should be recovered and transfered to new PC
(windows system).
Western Digital (WD) have their NAS bookWorld as ext.network/USB disk with
Linux partitions on it.

thank a lot for help.
