For some reason insmod sg didn't work, besides the sg module
was loaded already. Found a work around though.
Clunky way, but it worked. See another post on this.

    Looks like the sg module is not loaded.
    Do 'insmod sg' as root and try
    cdrecord -scanbus
    again.  The /dev/scd0 device is not used for the Recording. Only for
    reading CD.
