FlashFloppy supports .st files.

Yes you can write files on a .ST file format disk whilst using flashfloppy.

The last time I tried DevPac, I could not register my test file (less than 2ko file).
I don't remember the error message, (disk full but I'm not sure)
Is there an option somewhere to allow write to floppy ?

I would use a pc emulator and make yourself a number of blank floppy disk images and try those.
Theres not a read write setting other than the rw options similar to what youd have in windows.

Yep, I have successfully created a blank .ST disk image with Hatari or STEEM SSE and then used a Gotek with FlashFloppy to read/write/format the image file.

You could force write protect, but by default, write is enabled. Only be aware that formatting to a higher capacity (more tracks/sectors) than original image size will corrupt the image file.
