I have a device reported as below. It is a PCMCIA card reader with SCSI-2 connections. I know the device can work as a direct access device when flash memory is present as I have connected it to an Akai sampler which can read the card. I am assuming here the sampler's SCSI stack is not very complex and is just ignoring the device type.
