I look it up and found it is an Unsupported or incorrect storage type error but I have no idea how to fix the problem when it occurs. I do have Cider Press for Windows, not sure if I can use that to fix the disk images before writing them to a real 3.5" disk.

OK, I know that one. You have 512KiB, tell us which system you are
using please.

You are using a very (too) old version of the System, one which does
not handle resource forks (that's the reason why you get error $4b)

There's nothing to do but expand your RAM and use a more recent System
(use 5.0 or above) and you will be fine
