USB Key Perplexivities

I have just purchased a 1GB USB key.

When it's plugged into a laptop running Ubuntu it automounts 2 partitions

/dev/scd0 on /media/cdrecorder
/dev/sda1 on /media/TOSHIBA

what I don't understand is one partition is discovered as a cd style 
device and the other as a hard disk?

Anyone know what this all means?
