It seems pretty weird to me that Win7 would have removed the ability
to recognize 512-byte sectors... actually, downright shockingly stupid.

The simplest solution that occurs to me is to get a USB memory stick
and copy all the RealSky disks to it, using an XP machine. (All
entirely feasible; I got a 32 GByte USB stick for a mere $14 recently.)
This also ought to be somewhat faster, and spare you the need to swap
disks.

But if someone knows a way around the Win7/8 limitation, I'd like
to know about it. If nothing else, it would mean you could do the
copying without having to find an XP machine.
