just edit the hidden file ~/.kde/share/config/kscdrc   (The ~ means it is in 
your home directory)

Where it says CDDevice=/dev/cdrom  change that to /dev/hdc

It should be OK then

The CD-RW comes up as SCSI because Linux CD burning apps can ONLY use SCI 
devices, so your kernel emulates SCSI on your IDE drive.

Hope that helps
