Amiga Forever
You can convert a cheap USB floppy drive into one that reads Amiga disks using a Drawbridge from https://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk/ - I've done this and it works.

I got to rescue A500, 1084S, and 215 disks
This seems to be Rob's official site?

Copying software from modern computers
For the second case I recommend Rob Smith's DrawBridge (previously known as ArduinoFloppyDiskReader): https://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk/ It's a simple arduino-based project, which allows you to use a regular PC floppy drive to write (and read) amiga disk images. You can make your own, or wait your turn for Rob to sell you one pre-assembled. I made my own and it works great.

Amiga500 Mini & Floppy's
Forget the a500 mini, it's not worth your time. You can use this cheap contraption to grab images of all your old floppy disks: https://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk/ and just load them up on an emulator like fs-uae, winuae, or whatever, which you can run on any PC you like. The A500mini is just an ARM computer in an amiga-shaped box running the same emulator, without a keyboard, without giving you all the options the emulator can handle, and you have to pay for it... The point approaches 0 pretty fast.

Bit banging a 3.5" Floppy Drive
Take a look at the Greaseweazle https://github.com/keirf/greaseweazle to see what a really high-end solution in this space looks like. It's intended as a from-scratch alternative to the beter known KryoFlux.

Everything I know about floppy disks
If you get yourself a greaseweazle (or have an stm32 blue pill laying around) it will allow you to create a disk image of the disks over usb

5.25“ Floppy Disk Imaging Manual (2018) [pdf]
Seems to use an older, non-openhardware solution.
These days, there's GreaseWeazle[0], setting the standard.

Backing up a few disks
Any PC floppy drive (they shipped in large numbers, so not expensive or hard to find), connected with GreaseWeazle.
- Is there an easy solution to making copies of a Floppy?
