yeah - or is there a simple command like OPEN to get a specific file from 64HDD drive 9 to my 1541 drive 8?

To copy from a 64HDD drive to a real, live 1541 you could use JiffyDOS's built in file copier. That's what I do.

With 64HDD Pro, there is a simple command channel command to copy files from one 64HDD drive to another 64HDD drive. Assuming you are using a wedge of some kind:

@KOPY:destnationdrive=filename

This copies filename from the current drive and copies it to the destinationdrive as in:

@KOPY:8=SPEEDSCRIPT

This will copy a file names SPEEDSCRIPT from the current drive to drive 8. The copying is very, very fast. You could copy an entire disk of files between drives in just a few seconds. Unfortunately, it does not copy between 64HDD drives and real Commodore disk drives.
