Yes, but a real 1541 is needed :(
Mine is dead for now, and I don’t know how to repair it.

I've a commodore sx64 (slept for almost 20 years in a corner.)

- the floppy disk is not working (probably a problem of alignment)
- the keyboard has dead keys

The rest seems to be working...

I'm planning to repair it 
I'm thinking to replace the floppy by a sdcard... (hidden :) I love it as it
is)

The Kryoflux hardware idea is fine. Software support tends to lag. It can't
read the back side of disks, for example.

For Commodore backups, I think the ZoomFloppy is better. Disclaimer: I
designed it but make no money from it.
