Oops, a real old one. Can this do multisession? If not, this is
probably the problem. Some of these old nec drives lock up if
you check for a multisession cd and they don't support it.

In drivers/scsi/scsi.c (grep for "NEC" to find the place) are already
a few strcmp() calls to exclude some drives from multisession handling,
just add your drive there.
