Two burners on on IDE? - Club CDFreaks

*boobytrap* · 25-03-2005

Should be a problem right, as long as they not both being used a once?

Hi boobytrap.

I'm running 2 BenQ 1620s on the same IDE cable, and I have not had any problems. I haven't tried burning with both at the same time, but I've heard it can be done — though it increases your risk of getting coasters.

Cheers,

Jie

I've got four burners on both IDE cables. Have my harddrives on a Promise Ultra PCI raid card and have no problems at all.
