Here's the interesting part, right at the end of the log:

This shows the computer sending a TEST UNIT READY command to the drive,
and the drive reporting Unit Attention: Media not present. So of
course Linux believes there is no media loaded in the drive and doesn't
try to read the partition table or anything else.

Presumably if the drive is plugged in during bootup then the BIOS does
something to make this error status go away. It's hard to guess what
that would be, however.
