Adding a second physical disk to Parallels Desktop 14

I wanted my (NTFS) data disk to be accessible from my boot camp Parallels VM. Parallels provides no support for this, so I tried it myself.

I duplicated the disk file that Parallels created and started poking around, and after half an hour or so, had success. This is what you need to do.

My boot camp disk is at /dev/disk0. My data disk is at /dev/disk1.
