CD Burner and DVD burner

Hi,

Do not put both burners on the same IDE channel. IDE does
not support full duplex and if both are active on the same
channel performance will be badly degraded.

I have 2 hard drives and a CD and a DVD burner. Each HDD
is set to Master and the burners are slaves.

Hi all, I have an Asus 52x24x52 cd burner.

And just got a pioneer A06 DVD burner yesterday.

I read on one site the DVD burner should be set
as master. (The CD burner is master atm, and the
DVD the slave). Would it still be better as is?

Since the CD burner is faster than the DVD burner?

Or should I change them round? I've got plenty
of ram ( 1GB DDR). And Windows XP.

I would prefer to keep the CD burner,since
the DVD burner's only 16x to CD. and 32x read


What do you think?







.

Well i had a burner and normal dvd on the same ide.

No probs at all.

Well you're not meant to put either on
the main ide with a hdd either. As the hdd is slower
than both dvd and the burner.

Do you know whatya talking bout anonymous?
full duplex of what exactly? lol. If you dont,
dont bother answering with stupid answers.

Well I use the Asus P4P800. Which has 2 masters
and 2 slaves (due to the ide and sata).

The main ide is an 80gb on the secondary
the burner and burner.

On the secondary master ide a 120gb sata.
by itself.

So the 80 and the 120 gb hdd's are on separate
channels, coz 1 is ide and the other is on a
sata connection.
