I don't see the sd_mod module listed, which supports SCSI hard disks.
However, it may be that this driver is built-in on your kernel rather
than being a module.  I also don't know if USB disks require you to
run the rescan-scsi-bus.sh script like FireWire disks do to be recognized
by the system.

P.S.  You may also need the base SCSI module scsi_mod and for the
      CD-RW the sr_mod module.
