I 23:26:14 Destination Device: [2:2:0] TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S223Q SB02 (D:) (RAID)

The firmware update and the booktype setting both didn't work probably because the drive is connected to a SATA controller in RAID mode. Can you connect it to another SATA port? Preferably on a different controller.

Well, your card uses a bad chipset: I have one of those and it blocks the commands for booktyping +R media and also blocks updating firmware :(

 

Do you have a SATA-to-USB adapter or you could plug your drive in a friend's computer? I'm asking because you can patch the firmware to always booktype +R media to DVD-ROM, but in order to do this we need to be able to flash the firmware on your burner :unsure:

The incompatibility with Samsung SATA burners and VIA chipsets is known for quite some time now...

 

You can use this patch utility to patch the SB03 firmware for your burner so that it always booktypes +R media to DVD-ROM. Then you can use the SATA-to-USB adapter to flash your drive with the up-to-date patched firmware :)
