QEMU uses the PC BIOS from the Bochs project and the Plex86/Bochs LGPL
(for instance, "file=my,,file" to use file "my,file").

By default, writethrough caching is used for all block device. This means that
attempt to do disk IO directly to the guests memory. QEMU may still perform
an internal copy of the data.
+Some block drivers perform badly with @option{cache=writethrough}, most notably,
+qcow2. If performance is more important than correctness,
+@option{cache=writeback} should be used with qcow2. By default, if no explicit
+caching is specified for a qcow2 disk image, @option{cache=writeback} will be
+used. For all other disk types, @option{cache=writethrough} is the default.

Instead of @option{-cdrom} you can use:
