Hi i do a lot of CD Duplacation work for djs i dont have a decicated Duplacation box, so i am thinking of, adding 4 DVD RWs to my pc Via a Mini PCI-E Sata Card.. But i am unsure about if and how it would work... Questions.. 1. Do i have enough , bandwith on my pci-e bus? 2. i have seen a lot of cards with have ten plus sata connections, are they just for HDDs? 3. Software, i herd nero can do mutipul burns... how many is max? OR what software would i need? EDIT: MY MOBO: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3505#ov On to my next topic SSDs. Thinking of getting a few, i know they would be worth it but, how many can my pc handle, were looking at getting about 5 x 120GB OCZ drives. is worth it?
link edited. what cpu & how much ram. ssd is good for boot drive but not good idea for data drives so go with sata hard drives. don't think those cards are just for hard drives as mothernoard might not see the drives just windows.
Thanks for you reply ddp I have a Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.8GHZ , and 6GHZ Corsair XMMS3 DDR3 curently running windows 7 32 bit , i know about the 2.7gb useable ram bit, but if its needs be i will, change my os to x64 i have no problems doing that at all. thanks for the advice on the ssd i will get one as a boot drive and just stick to my good old normal hhds
