[Coco] KryoFlux

[John E. Bielak]

I haven't used that particular device, but It seems like a USB version 
of the catweasel disk drive controller... which is interesting as it 
means not having to mount a drive inside a (modern) system.  From what I 
could gather it appears that it does low level reads and writes which 
makes it  good for trying to archive, and then later replicate on 
physical media, copy protected disks.  The KryoFlux would also be 
particularly useful if you're trying to archive disks from a broad range 
of old machines.  Though, I not sure how much use it would be if you 
running emulators or one of the flash drive options.  Cost wise it is 
somewhat on the pricey side,  but given that is one of those custom 
small production run gadgets, it's still in line with a lot of other 
retro devices I've purchased. (HcX floppy Emulator, Catweasel, 1541U, 
C64 Chameleon Etc.)
