I installed ntfs-3g and ntfsprogs from the epel repo.

I made a mount point at /mnt/Win-7

I added:
/dev/sdc1               /mnt/Win7       ntfs-3g  ro,umask=0222,defaults 0 0

in /etc/fstab

I issued:
mount /dev/sdc1

In /home/mlapier/Shared

ln -s /mnt/Win7 USB1

I was able to access the contents of the drive through the sym link from 
the Win-7 Pro VM.

Live is good.
