MyIDE Drive Manager is a relatively simple front-end, for Windows, to the excellent MyIDE Tool written by Matthias Reichl. I have also enhanced myidetool in a number of ways (source and binary included, see below).
I wrote MyIDE Drive Manager for myself so that I could manage my own MyIDE+flash. However, I thought that others may find it useful too.

PLEASE BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN RUNING THIS TOOL,
YOU CAN EASILY TRASH YOUR HARDDRIVE IF YOU WRITE
DATA TO THE WRONG DISK DRIVE!
IF YOU ARE IN ANY DOUBT, DON'T WRITE TO THE DRIVE
Everything should be fairly self-explanitory in the application.
InstallationThe application requires the .NET Framework v3.5 which if you don't have you can get from Windows Update.
Other than that, simply unzip MyIDEDriveManager.zip into a directory and run MyIDEDriveManager.exe
OperationMyIDE Drive Manager will automatically detect your MyIDE drive (right now it only supports a single drive).
This detection is currently very conservative, but please do double check the drive information that is displayed before writing anything to the drive for the first time.

Notes
PrivilegesMyIDE Drive Manager, just like MyIDE Tool, requires elevated privileges in order to operate. As such you will be presented with a UAC prompt for elevation when you run it on Vista or above.
On XP you'll find that the application really doesn't work properly unless you run it as an administrator.
myidetool.exeMyIDE Tool has been updated slightly by me in order to add a couple of operations (such as the ability to delete images from slots) and to report progress of long running operations.
This version also compensates for ATR images of varying sizes. So, 'k' files should work just fine.
The source is included in myidetool_source.zip within MyIDEDriveManager.zip
Releases5th June 2011 - LBA, SDX, Drive images, XP Fixes etc. etc. v0.95

Happy IDEing!
