SCSITaskUserClient Error?

I have a Intel xServe w/ OSX 10.5.7 server running VMWare Fusion 2.0.4, hosting a OSX 10.5.7 server as a guest OS. On the host server I get constant "kernel[0]: SCSITaskUserClient - Invalid arguments: scatterGatherEntries = 1, requestedTransferCount = 0, transferDirection is 0" errors thrown. I've seen a couple of references to new OS versions resolving this, but I'm on the latest of OS and VMWare Fusion, any ideas?

Thanks,

-Chad

Oh, and I've narrowed this down to something with VMWare because this error is only thrown when I have a VM running.

Disabling my optical drive as suggested :

Seemed to stop the constant syslog spam

IE: untick connected and autodetect

Does this need a patch??
