Files with the .VMDK extension contain data in the form of a virtual disk representing the contents of the VMware virtual machine hard disk. Access to the VMDK drive is possible in the same way as access to the physical drive using virtualization software.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "SV2I") to another (referred to as "VMDK"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, SV2I file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format SV2I to format VMDK becomes essential.
So, how can we perform SV2I to VMDK file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format SV2I and transforming it into format VMDK. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of SV2I to VMDK converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of SV2I to VMDK. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the SV2I file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
