Just wondering but are there any slow speed dvd drives that wouldn't emit sound of starting jet engine when they are reading cd ?
 
I have a sony optiarc. it's pretty quiet. But I think you can limit the speed of any drive to quiet it. Quick google searched turned up this.
 
I dont notice the sound of either LG drive in my system......one is the GH22NS50, the other is their SuperMulti Blue Drive......both of them are inaudible over the 3 120mm fans above them in my case.....and they are used for the backup of DVD's, so they spin for extended periods of time with my head 4-5 ft from them
