I am looking at this a dif way.... like someone said, once these 32x's hit, the 24x's are going to drop even further. Then I can buy a second TDK 24x for my second box or <evil grin> dual 24x drives in the same box. lol bwahahaha
Nero lets you write to two drives at the same time.
FYI: For anyone wanting to know, I have literally burned hundreds of PNY disks (the cheap stuff), all at 24x. I don't coaster, at all, even while playing a game like UT, RTCW, whatever... 3 of my buds have the same drive too. These drives are solid.
