Using Sonar on Mac through Parallels: Can audio/project files be stored on Mac partition??

I am now running Sonar through Parallels (OSX Lion emulating Windows 7). Windows is setup on Parallels through a bootcamp partition. Can I store my audio/project folders on the Mac partition (much more room there). Thanks!!

    well if you can see the drives in sonar, try using em.. but if it's native mac format, and you can't see em the only way would be to use a halfway point..  e.g. a fat32 partition.. thats what me and a mac friend used to do with things like that.

    I created a FAT 32 partition and put my Cakewalk Project/Audio files there. I can access them from Sonar (running in Win 7 BOOTCAMP now), but when I try to play or work with them I get a hardware error and no luck. Anyone running this setup and have advice/experience on ensuring everything works? Thanks!

    I am using Sonar X1 on a Bootcamp partition on Snow Leopard. I have a drive with two partitions. One  format NTFS and the other Mac OS. Everything is running flawless. Why Parallels? Bootcamp is seems the way to go.
