I used an NEC 7 CD drive with my WGS80 server using FWB's CD-ROM 
Toolkit.  It worked well enough but at various times it would cycle 
through all 7 CD-ROMs which took a couple of minutes.  Very annoying.

I've since replaced that server and drive with a 7500 and a 60Gb IDE 
drive.  Instead of serving CD-ROMs I store image files of them on the 
HD, mount them as volumes on the server and serve them on the 
network.  I can serve a lot more than 7 CDs this way and they are 
much faster too.
