It is not a good idea to have both burner and regular CD/DVD connect
to same IDE port epecially if you want to burn on the fly. It's a good
idea to make both of them SLAVE of hard drives (2 different IDE ports)

Trouble is that you IDE hard drive runs at the speed of the slave device so a
UDMA100 IDE hard drive will cog down to the CD speed. As long as you have burn
protect (or equivalent) on the CD is is best to seperate IDE hard drives and
CD-ROM across busses.

That problem was fixed several years ago.

Ancient history. Ancient in computer terms, anyway :-)
