You probably cannot find this type of setup since SCSI implied a drive that is powered externally ( as opposed to USB which is bus powered ) so this would probably be a huge device... you probably cannot get small and portable and SCSI into the same unit...

here are a couple of options

1. PCMCIA DVD burner

2. Firewire over PCMCIA
Buy a firewire PCMCIA card and hook up a firewire DVD burner...

here is the card

You can probably buy a new one on ebay for about $15

and then here are some burner options:
- large form factor ( 5 1/2 ) DVD burner
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDe ... 029&depa=0

small form factor
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDe ... 125&depa=0

as I am sure you would know, the smaller they are, the more you pay.....
