If they're SCSI, then connectivity should not be a problem. The big question is whether Toast or other CDRW software supports the drive.
Newer version of Toast do support it (see xlr8yourmac.com). Essentially anything that allows me to burn to it will do as long as it works ok.
Does the burner/writer software support the drive, and does whatever you use for a CDROM driver support the drive.
Primarily the drive has to Read. The fact it's a 32x reader is a big bonus. I get sick of waiting for stuff to install form a 2x CD drive on older machines. Burning is really only a secondary consideration, but it would be nice to be able to burn CDs, esp from machines with old hard drives etc.
After you get yours could you let the rest of us know hwere you found them and how much they are? Assuming it's a mail order place and not a local shop.
