No...I have one of these at home hooked up to a u34f SCSI card on a system running 2.0.31. I can mount all 7 CDs and go back and forth between looking at each of them. It automatically swaps the CDs around and loads the one I'm currently using. I've heard you can do nasty things to the system by intentionally forcing it to swap CDs around much faster than it's capable of, but haven't ever tried breaking it that way.
