According to the documentation for USB, the drives that should show up on your system are /dev/sda or /dev/sdx if you already have a /dev/sda or /dev/sdb, etc. In other words, the USB devs should start at one above any pre existing SCSI disks.
This means that your /dev/scd0 should not conflict with any of the USB-based SCSI emulations.
