David Keil's emulator is capable of reading and writing 5.25" disks.
It is rather slick; you don't even have to use a utility to first transfer
the file from real disk to virtual or vice versa. You just put it in your
drive and use it like a real TRS-80. I've used it and it worked well
for me. After scoring a large load of TRS-80 disks, I copied what
I could and sent it all to Ira.

Some of the other emulators have direct support, or they use Jeff Vasavour's
utilities to transfer between real disks and virtual disks.

All of them are available from http://www.trs-80.com.
