It should, I have an NEC 4Xi hooked to an Adaptec 2940, OS/2 sees both
of my sessions just fine.  But it doesn't work under DOS/WIN.

It has more to do with your drive.  If you drive supports it, it might do 
it not according to Orange Book standards (i.e. CD-ROM multisession, also 
there is CD-ROM XA)

I had to do nothing special with my NEC drive to get it to read the CD, works 
like a charm here

Using EZ-SCSI 4.0, you should have no problems in DOS/WIN.
