SYBIL's software was fully completed, and it can write back Amiga, Mac, Amax, IBM, and Atari ST disks (protected or not).

It requires a hardware copier in order to duplicate long tracks and exact length tracks.

I will see what I have for SYBIL software.  I found a bunch of original SYBIL units and disks.  The problem you are describing was VERY common when the calibration was not performed (or set correctly).  The calibration could be way off for Mac disks because they were GCR.  Amiga disks required the calibration to be correct.  SYBIL could duplicate everything that SuperCard Ami II could, and only required one drive to do it.

BTW, I will be releasing SuperCard Pro sometime in the next couple of months.  This is modern version of SYBIL.  This device has higher resolution than KryoFlux (25ns vs. 41.66ns) and can operate as a stand alone copier, not requiring a PC with USB interface, although that also supported.
