Have a look at scsi_scan.c - if bit 8 of the second byte
to be returned (from the scsi inquiry command) is set
(i.e. the HA driver/drive has returned that the drive
is removable) or if the drive is on the black list as
BLIST_ISDISK or BLIST_ISROM, removable is set.

sd.c printks something like:
"Detected scsi disk sda at scsi ...." etc. if non removable, or:
"Detected scsi removable disk sda at scsi ...." if removable.
Cheers,
Mark.
