If I have a SONY DRU500A IDE drive and an external USB CD-R drive, can I burn a DVD and a CD at the same time on two different drive? If so, would it slow down each other? Does it use a lot of resources? Has anyone had any experience with this? Thanks.

I generally try not to have MSN Messanger open at the same time as my burning software; let alone an entire other burning program.
How slow is your CD burner? My DVD burners does CD's at 12X; which at that speed gives me a CD in about 6 minutes. If a few minutes is too long for you.......
Well, you get my point.

I understand your point, but I dont think your understand mine.
1) I am trying to burn with a DVD Burner and a CD Burner.
2) One makes CD's the othet makes DVD's.
3) If I could burn at the same time it would be excellent.
4) Can you run 2 open NERO's or any 2 open burning programs at the same time? Will it be ok?

I wouldn't even begin to attempt it unless you have a hyperthreading CPU, and are running two seperate programs.
Now, of course you ask the question; is it possible? The answer is yes. But think of this. Single bit errors cause artifacts on DVD's. Burning at 1X (DVD) you are burning at a rate of 1.3 KB per millisecond. Now if you get even a 1 millisecond lag you are going to cause artifacts that will remain present on your finnished DVD for 10 seconds or so.
And if the same thing happens on an audio CD you'll get the ever popular "popping" noise in the middle of the disc; the kinds we used to get when burners came out for 486's.
If you want to save some time, get yourself a low end Pentium II computer and run it beside your main PC to burn your CD's.

Made Me laugh too. On top of what Ken says, which is absolutely true, you probably need dual processing and two seperate hard drives on seperate IDE channels with the DVD and CD writers on the same IDE channels as their hard drive counterparts.

HAHAHAH. It's real funny when you think you know what you are talking about but you really don't. Not only can you do it with CD's but with DVD's as well and up to three at at time. Follow this link on how to do it

Next time you fuckers think you know everything...think again or do some more research before hand.

Oh dear you are stupid aren't you lol. You know how dumb you are? You stated you wanted to do it with your current resources! You cant, you have to buy the hardware to do it.
Its like someone asking: "Could i fly if i jumped off a building?"
The reply would be "no!"
They would retort: "oh, you're so stupid, i can with a parachute!"
Watch your language as well kiddo!

Yes you can try reading up on hyperOS... you can have 12 Windows XP open and running at the same time and doing many task that would crash a regular computer. All of this one standalone with hyper OS installed.
