USB drives generally show up as (emulated) SCSI:

mount /dev/sd0i /mnt

will mount most USB hard drives/flash drives. I would expect that would work
with a USB DVD as well.

(sd0i is usually the first partition - for example, I have a USB HDD which has
a bootable ReiserFS partition, a swap space and a FAT partition - so on
OpenBSD, I use 'mount /dev/sd0k /mnt' to mount the FAT partition)
