Default Best Amiga disk archiver

What is the best disk archiver for OS3.9?

I would like to archive alot of disks before I get an Amigaone that has no FDD.

Thanks!

My vote goes for TransADF with the zlib compression option. While probably not offering the best compression ratio, it's much easily portable and the compressed disks can be read directly with UAE, or easily decompressed to RAD: on the AmigaOne for example.

Just tried it.

All goes well when making the archive, but when I want to write back to DF0: or RAD: no file name shows up in the requester??
