FreeBSD Handbook:


      22.3.3. VirtualBox^(TM) Host DVD/CD Access


Missing the atapicam from the Wiki:


      Host DVD/CD access

atapicam kernel module needs to be loaded via /boot/loader.conf:

atapicam_load="YES"

Also,  if the CD/DVD on the host is detected as acd0, then you need to 
add the
following to the /etc/devfs.conf file:


This needs to be done in the Wiki as well as the Handbook

# if DVD/CD detected as /dev/acd0 add the following:
link acd0 cd0
perm acd0 0660

# add the following:
perm cd0 0660
perm xpt0 0660
perm pass0 0660
