Is it possible for parallels virtual machines to live on an sd card?

Question

macOS

Good day,
there is a poppy beech pro 2015 with 8 gigs of RAM,
hard at 128 - for the main software (ide, etc) there is enough
needed in a virtual machine on Windows, not for frequent use and not for constant uptime - but still
there is an idea:
put parallels on the main ssd and host virtual machines on the SD card (Transcend JetDrive Lite 330)
how viable is this option?
task - one running virtual machine, not always, on windows 7 - there will be no load on virtual machines, mainly browsers (cross-browser testing of the web
) wire from the main device, which I would like less.But I stuck the card and forgot)
Thanks

Answer 1

I have under parallels on an external hard and Windows and Ubuntu. On mac air, I did not notice the brakes. Perhaps it will be noticeable on the firmware, but IMHO, not significantly. Take an external USB 3.0 hard drive, since 1.8 "is very compact.
Flash memory in this use case is an extremely unreliable option.

Answer 2

Generally it is possible. The speed will not be so hot, and the cards will die relatively quickly from the wear of the flash memory, but as an everyday working option "if you don't mind" - no problem.

на сколько будет более выигрышный вариант с внешним SSD/HDD - вместо Transcend JetDrive Lite 330 - только под виртуалку, вплане скорости работы ?с другой стороны не хочется с собой таскать внешник
