FlopImager Description

FlopImager creates image files of your floppy disks. Once created, it can be written back to another disk. The application can be used to simply copy one disk to another. But the main reason I wrote this application is, that the data stored on a floppy disk is not as safe as data stored on a compact disk or a hard disk. It is easy to copy all files from a floppy disk to another form of medium. But some floppy disks contain extra information that is not stored in files. And some floppy disks contain data without known file-system information (e.g. disks written by foreign operating systems). This is where FlopImager becomes useful. This very easy-to-use application reads the entire content of floppy disk - cylinder by cylinder - and saves it into an compressed image file on a specified path. If the original disk get lost or damaged, it can be reproduced any time with the help of the disk image.
