Apologies for the multiple posts.
I am looking to run Parallels on my Mac Mini.
Since Parallels uses Windows ARM, is there an installer compatible with this OS?
I would like to install Hard Disk Sentinel Professional in the VM so that I can generate notifications/reports from my Synology NAS.

Re: Windows ARM Install
Generally the installer of Hard Disk Sentinel can be used on Windows running on ARM CPUs: Windows properly emulates x86, so the software can be installed and used.
In May, there was a facebook post about it and some images, here I copy-paste for reference:
Recently found an interesting page: the Windows On Raspberry project at https://www.worproject.com/downloads
There is also a detailed tutorial about how to Install Windows 11 on Raspberry Pi 4 on https://electropeak.com/.../how-to-install-windows-11-on.../
and wanted to try Hard Disk Sentinel, just to verify how it works on the ARM CPU. So installed Windows 11 on an old Raspberry PI 4 and was so happy to see the results: here are some screenshots about Hard Disk Sentinel Pro running on ARM CPU, under Windows installed.
Please note that using in VM would give no results: the VM does not allow accessing the real disk drives, just provides a virtual disk drive (which may be completely different than the physical drive). So if you run inside a VM, you'll get no details about the real physical hardware.
Maybe yes, you can only use to monitor the drive(s) in the NAS.
