I have the CM206, which has the motorised tray, and find it a very good
drive, if only dual speed. It seems able to read any CD put into the slot.

I see you have the driver mailed to you already, but you might like to look
at www.philips.com, they have a section on the site with drivers for these
units. They have DOS and OS/2, and I think a firmware upgrade if you can blow
EPROMS. However, LMS product support has been turned over to another company
whoes name escapes me. This company have released a buggy (by their own 
admission)driver for W95. I have seen comments that it has crashed machines. 
An update to the W95 driver is apparently due in January.
