That's good. CD drives draw different amounts of power depending on
activity (e.g. insert cd, disk spin up)  and so a working drive can
later appear to fail.

OK.

On image I see Antika drive has  USB3 (blue insert) connector  - which
means it may require a USB3 port to get enough power.  There are no USB3
ports on a Pi3
