Anybody using 2 cd burners in their machine?

[Don66]

I won a Yamaha burner and was thinking about using it along with my liteon

wondeirng if you can do cdcopy with one drive
and iso on the other drives??

Something like that maybe burning 2 at the same time.
Nero has a box for using both burners at the same time.
I was just wondering if anyone else is doing this and if so, is there any real problems?

I imagine the only real problem would be supplying the 2 burners with enough data. You obviously would need them on seperate IDE channels, or else you would be asking for trouble. And with the typical 2 IDE channels in a PC, you've got no place for your hard drive (which again shouldn't share a channel with a burner).

No problems with IDE, everything is on its own channel.
Promise controller for the harddrives. Burner on their own IDE channels.

Been using two Sanyo 12X's for the past year no problems. Don't often have a need to burn with both at the same time but when I do no issues. They are SCSI so don't know about IDE issues but if you have them on their own channel there should be no problems.
