I have :
NetBSD 1.5 (MARINER) #0: Sat Nov 18 19:10:13 GMT 2000
mainbus 0 (root): SUNW,SPARCstation-20
probe(esp0:5:0): max sync rate 8.33MB/s
cd1 at scsibus0 target 5 lun 0: <YAMAHA, CRW4416S, 1.0g> SCSI2 5/cdrom removable
probe(esp0:6:0): max sync rate 4.23MB/s
cd0 at scsibus0 target 6 lun 0: <TOSHIBA, XM-4101TASUNSLCD, 1755> SCSI2 5/cdrom removable
The Yamaha CDRW is in a 411 case (I think it originally had a QIC drive in).
It works perfectly writing at 1, 2 and 4 speed. So, you should be fine.
