Asimov may be a good place to get backups of your software - but you may
want to also backup your data disks, which, I think, will not be in
Asimov... ;-) ShrinkIt can take a floppy disk (either 5.25" or 3.5") and
compress it into an "sdk" image file in any ProDOS partition. Later, you
can use ShrinkIt to restore the image into a floppy, or some "image
manager" software (like CiderPress in Windows) to access the files
contained in the image.

Unfortunately, this will not work with copy-protected disks. There must be
other software out there (how where the copy-protected niblized images done
if not?), but I don't know about it. Maybe more recent versions of Copy II
Plus will do that?
