Only use one drive. The Amiga will spin them all simultaneously but it will read only one at a time.

You'll just slow down the process if you read more than one drive at a time.

As for the software, use Icycool's diskripper, which is just perfect for making images of a large amount of disks. You can edit the next disk's filename as you read the previous one and it autoincrements the number if you have a number at the end of the filename.

Risky using anything cracked as there were some wonderful virus back in the day.
 I archive my floppies by saving them as a disk image on the hardrive and then burn those to a CD
