Help! Need a Mac OS X solution to manipulating CFFA

...O.k.... I've been asking anyone who might know...

I purchased the CFFA 1 & 2 for my computer collection. I want to use the CFFA1 drive right away but I don't own a windows machine to run Ciderpress. Is there another method? Any Mac OS guys that have a reasonable solution?

I had, at one time, Virtual PC running on my PB but it was just as reliable as the real thing and I took it off. Port management was sketchy at best.

I also have a large Apple II disk library and would like to transfer those images to something more hearty than 5.25" disks. If anyone knows of a site or process it which to do this I would appreciate the 411.

Do you mean you have a bunch of physical 5.25" disks you want transferred (for which I'd recommend MacADT, ADTPro, or FastDSK) or you have a bunch of .dsk images you want to put on a DOS Maser volume (a la https://dreher.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=100) for which I have no recommendations beyond CiderPress)?

I have a collection of original and copy 5.25" Apple IIe software I would like to preserve. Hundreds.

Thanks for the links. I'm out of town right now but when I get home I'll give it a go.
