My suggestion is Jim Brains uIEC/SD I own 1 and have used it for a few years
now. I pop a SD card in and copy my files to it, it accepts JiffyDOS commands
and have used it to enter and mount .d64, .d71, and .d81 images with no issues
at all.. In fact when I was copying my Lt Kernal HD over to my Emulated
system, I backed up to .d81 images on a uIEC/SD card, then copied them to my
PC via a SD Card reader and mounted them and copied the files off the images.
You can have 12 partitions on it and pretty much if you want treat it like a
hard drive. You might want to read up on it at go4retro.com Jim Brain is a
good guy and is keeping the Commodore alive with what he sells...

... A .GIF is worth a thousand .TXT.
