Will a conventional floppy work in the Amiga?


What do you mean by "conventional"? If you mean a PC drive, then the answer is no unless you modify it. There are many guides on the net how to do so for different models.

As I said, a PC drive has to be modified (soldering required). Not all drives can be modded, only those which have a READY signal somewhere on their PCB. It's also possible to do a "cable hack" that simulates the READY signal, like the one described here.
