^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Try to put an 80pol. ATA cable (intead of a 40pol.) one in.

As it has been suggested, try to use a differentiated form for
your devices, such as
/dev/acd0 /writer cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0
/dev/acd1 /dvd cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0

Your "new" command would be:
# mount /writer
or
# mount /dvd
according to the device.
If you put a media in, first check if it gets recognized
correctly.
# cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 info
or
# cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 info
If you prefer your DVD "not-writer" to be the default device
for reading CDs or DVDs (I do so, I use the writer only for
writing), you can set CDROM environment variable to that device
anbd you don't have to include the -f option anymore.
