The output from ls -1 /dev/cd was

/dev/cdrom
/dev/cdrom1
/dev/cdrw
/dev/cdrw1

The output from ls -1 /dev/dvd was

/dev/dvd1
/dev/dvdrw1

The output from ls -1 /dev/scd was

/dev/scd0
/dev/scd1

The output from dmesg was

[   39.951377] ata2.00: ATAPI: SONY    DVD RW DRU-530A, 1.0e, max UDMA/33
[   40.296438] scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM            SONY     DVD RW DRU-530A 
  1.0e PQ: 0 ANSI: 5


I guess this means that the computer is aware of my drives.
