It will only work with a second drive connected to the same cable, and your FDC must support both drives. This also applies to the Disk2FDI method used to read standard Amiga disks. If your BIOS doesn’t show a drive type for B: then it’s unlikely to be supported by your floppy controller chip. Modern motherboards typically only support a single floppy drive, if they support one at all.
I’ve connected a second drive but B: isn’t available. These issues shouldn’t be a problem for the majority of users and disk formats. The short-write feature of the driver relies on proper DMA behaviour too. Some have problems with FM encoded disks, others with 128-byte sectors. The level of support does still depend on the specific FDC chip in your PC. If in doubt, scan the disks with SAMdisk and see what shows up. If there’s an existing DOS/Linux utility for them, you should have no problems. Most PC-compatible soft-sectored disks should work. Without access to that it’s simply not possible to support formats beyond what the drive chooses to expose (typically DOS 720K and 1.44M formats only). USB floppy drives contain a separate floppy controller chip, which is not directly accessible from the host PC.
