With SMD disks even harder to come by than MFM disks, has there been any plug-in
replacements developed for them? I've seen MFM disk emulators, haven't seen SMD
ones though, anyone know if they exist?

I?m actively working on SMD and ESDI emulators. However, given my work schedule this is a
long term project. :-(

That's awesome. I have a number of SMD and ESDI controllers for
workstations and minicomputers. In particular, ESDI and SMD for Qbus,
in multiple SI9900 boxes (MASSBUS-SMD), and in an oddball 3rd-party
box with a dual SDI-ESDI interface (with a pair of working 600MB
drives, at least the last time I powered it on). It would be
fantastic to hang emulated drives off the boards I have.
Looking forward to the eventual launch!

It exists SMD disk replacement (ARAID for example, but they are
somewhat expensive but...)
