    i would like to know how to couple 2 writers to one computer.i have a h/d(of course)a reader, and the lite on 40x.. iwould like to add another lite on 40x..i would like advice on how to couple up(master -slave ect--primary, secondary)
    would i need extra cooling
    would i need to upgrade my power supply (350w is what i have now)
    have i missed anything, soft ware to use?
    sorry for the question to go on a bit - but i don't want anything to go bang, and sorry if you've already answered this question a thousand times already.
    thanks in advance

    I am not a wizard in IDE stuff but..

    #1 Master HD - Slave LiteOn
    #2 Master CD-ROM - Slave LiteOn nro. 2

    I have 2 SCSI Plexies, one IDE TDK and two small HDs in my system. I don't think that extra cooling is required, but naturally this depends on your PC case. Extra fans are very cheap and cool temperatures are always a good thing.

    Go to www.padus.com --- and download one of the DiscJuggler Help files.....Say the cdj1033.chm file.....Under the Advanced Concepts Section, there is information on using multiple CDRW-drives, how to select the drives, and how to hook them up
