USB-3 interface is a must there, but recent laptops have it (or have better generations of it). When your guest OS's don't require licensing, copying and moving are no-brainer and I have used them massively between Linux (mostly Ubuntu) and all Windows versions (XP/Vista 64-bit/Win 7/Win10) - zero problems.Īltenatively, which I have used extensively because recent high-level laptops are very powerful but you will find fast disk space rather limited when you have over 10 VMs with lots of data, you can run your VMs from an external SSD-drive and thus have unlimited, affordable space for VMs. Using a zip file, like suggested above, makes the copying more robust, too.

A faulty copy is the most common error in this regard. Use a reliable copying method - GUI copying in Windows is not one of them - robocopy in Windows or rsync on Linux. You can just copy or move them over to another place. There is no point in creating/importing virtual computers on each host. just for further clarification of the issue:
