I certainly used to use burncd(8) to burn anything on any drive, but it
hasn't worked for me for years now.  Last I knew, it was known to be
broken for 5.0 with a fix in the works at some point after that, but I've
checked occasionally since then with different drives and it's still never
worked.  Using atapicam(4) with burning tools from ports always works.
