I assume you mean you have two USB externals?

Wouldn't reccomend doing that. There is no reason why you couldn't do it, but it isn't going to speed the process up. For one you are going to be sending the same data to two different targets, that is really going to hammer your Hard Drive and you may find the transfer rate will actually fall.

I would also take a guess that running two External USB drives will just half the bandwidth on the USB - you don't have unlimited bandwidth - and so it will probably end up taking the same ammount of time - with an increased risk of one or both burns failing.

I wouldn't do it.

Thank you, I have not bought the second burner. You have just saved me money and headache. One other question what do you suggest I do to get multiple burns, by a 1:3 or invest in the tower some burners and a duplicator card. thanks
