The OS X driver opens the media instead of the drive, making most of the functions fail with unsupported answer from xnu.

Most of the driver is heavily dependent of the BSD compatibility layer, but xnu only offers this layer when there is a disc inserted in the drive and doesn't allow IOKit commands to be sent to it.
