I'm pretty sure. I'm limiting myself now to just concentrating my results on the one disk. I've successfully used this disk with quite a few scrapings of other disks, and they work with that disk in the Amiga no problem. I've also tried formatting this same disk with the "initialise" function in WB and it reprorted no problems with the disk either.

I've been using the emulator which is part of Amiga Forever. I think it's this one?: https://www.winuae.net/ Which is also accessible separately on my laptop without going through AF, although it appears differently. I've found both to work the same, except for the front end being different, and ive tried the same scraping files on each and both behave the same.

I've got some here, a stack of them, and ive tried this too before writing to the disk.

I'll set up a drop box folder and put stuff in there and send you the link privately.

Thank you.
