Jeff (who's behind the HxC SD Floppy Emulator) recently released a version of the HxC emulator firmware that's compatible with the STM32 chip used in the Gotek floppy emulators. This means that the great functionality of the HxC SD emulator is now available on cheaper and more widely available hardware.
