Okay, I see the difference. I cant find errors with "Unit Attention" anymore, 
so I guess this is working now.

There is still something wrong i think, because I tried it with several CDs 
and DVDs and they all work under Win, and they work under Linux as long as 
the drive is connected to an internal IDE port (and using IDE-SCSI), but it 
gives I/O errors (those without Unit Attention) if connected to the external 
usb2 case. 

anyway, thanks a lot,
