No, I've not seen mention of it in the manual for the drive.
Is the operation the same as using the 1541? With the Atari version,
everything is disk based. To take full advantage of the drive's
capabilities you boot a version of Atari DOS for it, though other
versions of the OS not specifically written to use it also work fine.
I've run a few non-Atari DOSes with it was well.

Yes, the Atari version did also. They're ok if they're the
only applications you have though! Did the Commodore version come in
the black plastic carry case?
