I have tried both SCSI and SATA are OK for cdrom.
CC Adam King:
I'm so sorry.
I have check again, SATA also can works. The guest can boot from SATA cdrom.
Maybe I make a mistake yesterday.
I have set a 14 SATA cdrom on my guest. It can works.
I also check the 440FX data sheet, it can also support SATA controller.
But I have not tried how manySATA controllers that it can support.
Just know one SATA controllers can support 6 SATA devices.

CDROM cannot be extended to more than 4,
this is limitation of IDE bus.
Change default bus of cdrom to scsi to overcome this limitation.
