This information used to be in wormcontrol(8) (which is arguably the
wrong place), but vanished there with Jean-Marc's device ID based
auto-recognition.

The current list can be obtained by:

j@uriah 535% grep 'T_WORM.*T_REMOV' /sys/scsi/scsiconf.c
		T_READONLY, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "HP", "C4324/C4325", "*",
		T_READONLY, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "HP", "CD-Writer 6020", "*",
		T_READONLY, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "IMS", "CDD2000*", "*",
		T_READONLY, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "PHILIPS", "CDD2*", "*",
		T_READONLY, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "PLASMON", "RF41*", "*",
		T_WORM, T_WORM, T_REMOV, "*", "*", "*",

This assumes you're asking for which drives are being supported in
`native' mode, i. e. by wormcontrol(8) & Co.  Other drives not
mentioned above might be caught in scsiconf.c by the last clause
above, but are not usable directly (i. e. through write(2) syscalls).
Nevertheless, they might work in connection with third-party software
like cdrecord (it's in the ports collection).  The latter is probably
better maintained than worm(4), but does everything and all in
userland, violating the ``classic Unix layering''.
