My only reason is to avoid as many mechanical pieces as possible to avoid noise, energy and breakdown.

The CR-Rom idea is nice though, so it could be an interresting way to go. I could potentially put all of muLinux and the web stuff on the CD and then it could get really simple to reboot.

I only used SCSI-attached ZIP

Easy to do, but why? You can mount a small disk partition for this
purpose. Example: you can mount a CD-ROM. Put your website on a CD-ROM!
