Amiga HDs to .HDF for emulation?

It's always embarassing for me to have to ask Amiga questions
here, but here goes...

I'd like to make archival copies of the hard disk partitions
in an A2000 and an A4000. I've got network cards and NFS running,
so I want to find a tool for the Amiga that will convert a hard
disk partition to an .HDF file that will mount under WinUAE.

For example, I'd mount my NT machine's P: drive as NTp: on
the Amiga, and the utility would write directly to "NTp:foo.hdf".

I tried this once before with 'packdev' and no compression,
but the results apparently weren't .HDF files and crashed
the WinUAE emulator.

Am I missing something obvious, like that the ADF-based tools
will work with hard disks, too?
