I know people seemed kind of turned off by the idea of GOTEK floppy disk

wanting to make disks for the GOTEK is a great way to do it. Put a
GOTEK and a real drive on the machine and just use backup. Then, for
the purists, take the GOTEK back off and hide it in a drawer.
A fully valid setup.
But for me, I doubt that it would make my life easier because I do have
the means to create standard IBM format floppies on my PC.
I don't know it, but does the GOTEK support raw images with timing, sector
and index information? If it supported e.g. hard sectored non-standard
disk images, then this would definitely catch my attention! :-)
