I am not sure on which level you are looking.
My time in CD-Recording is over for four years now - which is an
eternity in IT. That said, I am sure the MMC3 command set has
commands to do all these things.
However, why would you need to do this? If you are writing to the
device yourself, then you probably came across MMC command sets.
Forcing the cache to be flushed when other applications are writing
to the device is usually not a good idea.

Hello all,
I had inquired about this a while back and never got a response, so
thought I'd ask again.
Is there a way to control the hardware cache on cdrom drives in OS
X? For
example, I would like to turn caching on/off, force a flush of the
cache,
etc. It seems there should be an ioctl() to do this. But, all my
searching has turned up nothing. What have I missed?
