As long as they are dumped as 2352 bytes per sector (not 2048 bytes) as with PSX games it should be fine. Any games with multiple tracks (usually audio after the data track, but some CDs can have multiple data tracks as well) will most likely need a Plextor drive of some sort so that the gap length is preserved.
Just about all of my PC CDs were refused over at redump.org on the counts that I didn't have a Plextor, despite all of them being single track CDs which matched over multiple drives and even verified other redump sets in multiple cases (the others were all new dumps which weren't on redump at all). The others were refused on the counts that PC software didn't qualify as video games so they weren't included either. It's their loss in the long run, most of it got eBayed after that.
