getting amiga disk images from a pc onto a real amiga 500

Dug my old A500 out of the loft. I have some ADF files of games I own on the PC but no idea how to get them onto real floppies or into the machine. Do people use a gotek drive for this, or is there a way with a normal pc floppy drive?

A Gotek drive with FlashFloppy firmware is the way most people do it now. It goes in place of the internal floppy or as an external, and reads ADF files straight off a USB stick, so you just copy them over on the PC. Writing real floppies is harder because a normal PC floppy drive can't write the Amiga format - you'd need a Greaseweazle or similar. The Gotek is cheaper and you never swap disks again.
