Try Maverik Data copier it's fast.
I believe Tim Harris in the UK bought the rights to Maverick copiers and
the
Ramboard.
The Ramboard along with the Ramboard nibbler, you can slow the drive speed
to read longer tracks etc, hidden data.
Of course for your own personal backups of commercial games.

If you need Tims contact info just let me know.
