I don't know for sure, but I'd expect that you could use most
CD-ROM drives. Mentor Graphics is using the Toshiba XM-3201 for
their CD-ROM software and documentation.
However, I don't believe you can run a CD-ROM on a 425t yet. The
425t requires PSK8, and the CD-ROM drivers are on PSKQ2_91. The
installation notes for PSKQ2_91 state "NOTE: PSK Q2-91 is not
compatible with PSK8. Do not install PSK8 with this software."
Later, on page 1-16, it also says
"One or more CD-ROM readers may be atached to the following node types:
...
SAU12 - Series 400t/s but not on 68040 systems (425t/433s)"
I assume that PSK8 and PSKQ2_91 went through parallel development,
and now they need to merge the two lines again.
