Normal CD like read-only access to a USB CD-RW is simplicity. It acts as 
just another USB mass storage device. Write-access is a whole different 
story though. Looking at the 5.1 release notes, all the USB CD-R/RW 
devices are noted as being read-only. There may be a port that can 
handle USB CD-RW, so you may want to browse around in the ports.

Also ask on -questions or -hardware or search their archives. They are 
much more informed people than we.
