The instructions are here for the 2000 Driver but its no different for
any of the newer ones.
http://www.bpurcell.org/blog/index.cfm?mode=entry&entry=981
Basically it lets you use any JDBC Driver that doesn't come with
ColdFusion as standard.
Depending on what you are doing one will work better for some and the
other one better for the rest (If that makes sense)
DataDirect drivers have to prove themselves due to them being Third
Party and chargeable, but that is another can of worms to open another
time ;)
Best link I can find of the recent ones are for a CTP Driver (Don't
use in production) but it does have links to other drivers too

I've not tried switching the drivers before .. is it a straight
forward deal ? We don't run anything other than SQL server so using
the M$ ones might be the way forward anyway.
We should have our coldfusion 8 environment up and running by the
end of the week and I have a server already with sql 2008 on which
we have been using for testing so it'll probably be a case of seeing
if the two will play nice together.
Are the Microsoft JDBC drivers generally sound ?

I've not tried myself (As I'm still trying to set up a Win 2008/SQL
2008 environment at home)
But Over the last few weeks I have seen a few tweets on Twitter
indicating that it is do able.
I guess it's a case of trail and error, I guess you could test with
SQL Server 2008 Express
If the built in drivers don't work it may be worth looking at using
the MS SQL JDBC?

Hi all,
Does anyone know if Coldfusion 8 supports SQL Server 2008
currently ? I'm looking at a system design and while I see no reason
to not use SQL2008 for the rest of it I couldn't find much info on
SQL 2008 support in CF8.
Any help / links would be appreciated , I fear my google-foo has let
me down this morning :¬)
Regards
Stephen
