Smokeless Joe Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I'm looking for recommendations for archiving my floppy disks so I can use them either with a C64 emulator (like VICE) or with a 1541 emulator (like the upcoming 1541 Ultimate II+). So far, I've gathered that the G64 format is the way to go and the ZoomFloppy sounds like a good option. Any other file format options I should know? Anyone have experience with the ZoomFloppy? Any other hardware recommended? Thanks! - Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Are these originals or copied (unprotected) disks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokeless Joe Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 These are original disks. I'm kinda hoping to upload at least one of them to the C64 Preservation Project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krslam Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I've had good luck with the ZoomFloppy. It works better with a 1571 than a 1541 when dealing with copy protected disks, but there are some protection schemes it doesn't handle.
