There are 3 such devices for the ST.
1. Translator One.  Allows Mac disks to be read or written from within
   the Spectre 128 or Magic Sac emulation.  This is just the same as on
   a Mac, except you must format them using a TOS program.

2. Happy (products?), the folks that made eproms for the Atari 810 floppy
   drives, now have a product that is a Cartridge which allows copying
   a Mac disk to/from a magic format disk.  Obviously it cannot be used
   while Specter/Magic Sac is running as both are cartridges.

3. It is rummored that Dave Small is making a new "translator one"
   for his new company. When/where/if available is not defined.  If it 
   comes to be, it will surely work like item 1.

Also, There are several products for PC's that will also copy Mac floppies.
I have Central Point Software for my PC at work.
