How to ue two Asus DVD burners, advice please?
I have an Asus P5K and I am using two ide drives and have an Asus DVD
burner connected to a master serial connector. I want to be able to use two burners for copying, one for the master, one for the blank using Nero 8. Should the new burner be connected to a slave serial connector? TIA -- - |

Both drives should be set to Cable Select. You select which drive is which in Nero. Thanks for the help. I have both burners connected now but I don't see an option in Nero as to which is to be used as the recorder. I see an option to select which drive is used but then it is used for both playing and burning the copy. -- - |

Then you should see *two* selection boxes: Source Drive and Destination Drive (I've just tried it, so take this as fact.) If you don't, perhaps Nero isn't seeing one of them. The usual cause for this is that Nero doesn't recognise some new drives as they aren't in its local database. The solution is to update nero with the latest patch for the version you have. The above should work if the OS can already see both drives. Some versions of Nero can't be patched, but a full retail version should be OK. HTH, -- Rob |

Should I see this option when I select "DVD Copy" or is there a just a "disc copy" I should look for? Nero is seeing both recorders because when I select to choose recorder it shows both. -- - |

Instead of DVD copy I found the other disc copy and saw the options you described, thanks. I am copying a DVD now using both recorders. -- - |
