floppy emulator ipf + write support?

Im interested in floppy drive emulators and I read about the HxC.
The SD card version has write support but no support for reading variable bit rate (ipf images).
The usb version is read only but support variable bit rates.
It seems a little bit useless to me. Some games want to write hi scores or savegames and a lot of adf games are cracked badly, ipf is needed.

Is there a floppy emulator out there supporting both?
I am not interested in whdload or a real disk based solution like kryoflux.

saving high scores or savegames, not copying protected games. The real amiga disk drive can read with a variable bit length but write with a fixed bit length only. I don't expect more features from a floppy emulator than real diskdrive.
