If one side launched a massive saturation attack with small cheap drones such as the Iranian ones below, would the ships CIWS systems be able to cope?-

Depending on the ship of course, but the answer is that the combined systems of a competent combatant could probably cope with any realistic number of attackers. And, getting a significant number of attackers to a ship at a significant distance off shore would be a non trivial challenge. But of course the question is, in the fine, imponderable without much more detail of the tactical situation.
