   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...
