And your transfering them to Windows in Parallels, so Migration Assistant only transfers to OS X.
Like I said, Parallels is not recognizing the hardware dock, so use OS X to transfer the files to a USB thumb drive, then unplug and replug and mount it in Parallels/Windows to transfer your files.
OS X cannot write to NTFS formatted drives, but they can read from them. So perhaps Parallels can't mount NTFS because of that dual nature without additional software installed.
Also this could be considered a Parallels issue, check with their forums.
