Z80 and SNA
OqtaDrive can directly load Spectrum .z80
and .sna
snapshot files. Snapshots can be loaded as if they were cartridge files. OqtaDrive automatically converts them on the fly to MDR images, using a Golang port of Tom Dalby’s Z80onMDR_Lite. This is an integral part of OqtaDrive, so no additional software needs to be installed.
TAP Files
You can also load TAP files directly, and similar to snapshots, they are converted to a cartridge on the fly. This is also using a port of one of Tom’s tools. Note however that TAP files require some manual post-processing before the program can be loaded from the created cartridge.
