I've had one of the R&D boxen with the JMicron JMB363 controller turned back-to-front for a month, didn't notice it was equipped with an ancient 48X CD unit that had been seriously problematic on early 4.X. On either a GA G33-DS3R or Asus P5K, there has been no difficulty with what it sees as a "CD-948E/TKU/T4B" on acd0. Spins it up and takes a, extra few seconds (only) to sneak a peek at the media during boot if there IS any media, else not, but no significant delay. Thereafter it has been used to install a great many odds and sods to Qemu host, sometimes left attached to the guests and media ejected/changed, again w/o hiccups from either CLI or xfce4. Never an errmsg, and operates fast. FreeBSD 6.X, 7-CURRENT, 7-PRE, 7-BETA1, 8-CURRENT, both i386 & AMD-64. Mind - this is a pretty 'basic' unit as well as obsolete, but I'd still suggest trying the system with one or more other CDR/DVD - even antiques - than the one you now have to see if the problem migrates with the drive hardware rahter than the MB/controller or OS.
