Has anyone ever used a floppy simulator on an amiga?

Does it work like 64hdd for the c64?

I thought that this product was going to be great, however it is quite bad :-(

No XP support.

No protected disk support.

The parallel port implementations vary wildly between PC's and so you may or maynot be able to match the data rate required of the floppy disk interface.

Basically you have you buy a floppy disk server (A Win98 machine from them) to ensure it works.

Shame because it could have been great!
