There is a difference compared to a real drive: the disc motor signal is not connected internally to the Gotek. This means the ready signal will be active even if the disc motor is off.
EDIT: This is true for the old models. The new model SFRKC30.AT4.35 can pass the motor signal and reacts (delayed if wanted) to it for the ready signal. See below for Flashfloppy firmware.
