    Default Burning with hdd/burner conected on the same IDE cable

    I am running a 3 gig processor with a 1 gig of ram 675mhtz and I have the burner on the same IDE cable as the hard drive. I need 2 burn some dvd's do u think I will run into any problems. The burner has buffer under run technology.

    Thanx for quick reply.

    it was on an old celeron 850 system 320 MB RAM. 30 GB HDD. it didn't like overclocking when running XP, so it now has Linux Novell SUSE 10 @ 1133 MHz. it was running XP when i had the burner and HDD on the same IDE. burner is a Lite-On DVD and CD burner.

    i do mine about 10-12 min rip, 10-12 min burn
    am2 4800 dual core(2.4) 2 gigs ram
    sata hard drive to ide dvd.

    you'll be right
    only coppying from 1 disk to another causes probs

    i found that it doesnt have that much of a effect if its on the same ide channel even going from disc to disc on a older p4 machine.

    most burning software has really good buffers and also the drives have it to.

    not like the old 2x days where you had coasters left right and centre, media was really expensive asd well lol.

    saying that you should technically have better performance if they are on different ide channels. Why not open it up and fix it up? Shouldnt take more than a couple of minutes.
    goodluk
