I had no problems with nForce4 and these drives, having run them on an MSI K8N Neo 4 Platinum. OTOH, I had plenty of problems in AHCI mode with my Intel i975X board and Pioneer DVR-212D's; reading was fine, but writing was horrible. I'm back to IDE drives for now, since Intel support was worthless. To me, it seems that SATA optical support (at least on the Intel side) may still be a problem. I'll be putting my two 212D's up for sale soon.
EDIT: SithTracy, just got your PM. I'll be trying that option first. Hopefully it is available on the BadAxe2, and it will work.
