Hello everyone,
As I understand it, you are referring to external Firewire disk, not a Firewire audio interface, correct?
Yes that's a Block Device.
I think it is not possible to connect this Firewire audio interface on my Fusion
Correct, it is not possible and why I originally said "No, VMware Fusion does not see or recognize the Host's FireWire Port and cannot directly connect it to a Virtual Machine".
No, VMware Fusion does not see or recognize the Host's FireWire Port and cannot directly connect it to a Virtual Machine however if you attach a Block Storage Device to the FireWire Port you can access it via the VMware Shared Folders feature or a Share done at the Host OS level.
But how can I attach a storage device block?Sorry, I'm a laymanIn the the twenty-first century "Sorry, I'm a layman" reallty isn't a valid excuse with the available resources like Google and or Wikipedia!
A Block Device in this context is an External FireWire Drive that once attached to the Host can be accessed via a VMware Shared Folder or sharing it via System Preferences in OS X. The Guest OS will see it as a Network Share and with VMware Shared Folders will default to the Z: Drive for the first share and increment backwards for subsequent shares. If accessing it via a SMB/CIFS Share set at the Host OS Level you can map it to whatever drive letter you like that's available.
