Hi,
I found a couple of good reviews about the "Ultimate-II+" on the web.
One was a YT video.
This device is a 1541 emulator that plugs into a C64's expansion port.
The source for this device is Gideons in the Netherlands. Not available
anywhere else except maybe ebay.
One thing is VERY APPEALING about this device, you can
transfer floppy disk images (filename.D64) to this device.
All my favorite 1541 FDs have been "converted" (every disk sector) to
disk images using a good C64 emulator and a 1541 transfer utility.
Note: This is not cheap. It costs $157.** US

This device works GREAT. It has USB ports (3), a SD slot, plus an
ethernet connector (I did not find out how this is used).
On a single USB flash drive, I put all my .D64 image files from actual
floppy disks..
Using Ultimate -II+, I can access any one of these .D64 files on the USB
flash drive just as though it was a real floppy disk.
