Why each option
For building a Windows 2008 server, a DVD-RW drive is the most appropriate optical drive choice to install the operating system and other software.
A Flash Drive is a form of solid-state storage, not an optical drive, although it can be used for OS installation.
A DVD-RW drive can read and write both CDs and DVDs, making it suitable for installing the Windows 2008 operating system, which typically came on DVD media, and for burning or reading other software/backup media.
A CD-ROM drive can only read CDs; it cannot read DVD media, which is commonly used for Windows 2008 installation.
An SSD (Solid State Drive) is a type of persistent data storage used as a hard drive, not an optical drive.
