Since I never had a problem like this, I can't help you with this.
However, if I had to guess, I would eventually look at hdparm settings, or
even cables.
Just out of curiosity: What if you boot from a LiveCD (like Knoppix or GRML
or even the Gentoo LiveCD) in cdrw1, can you then read another disc from
cdrom1?
