Is it possible to use more than one CD writer at a time, ie have two copies of easy cd open at once. Or am I just pissing in the wind.

lol -I'm sure you'll find out really qiuck if you try- lol

Its actually a good question. I'd think we'd need different type of software (and hardware, probably). EasyCD doesn't let us choose multiply destination targets. Just one.

I see what your getting at. Place in one CD that needs to be copied to make two or more backups at one time, by writng to as many CD-Rs as available to the system.

There are tower solutions and stand alone units but I'm not into it so...I can't offer any other info.

Effectively yes, but if you have two copies of Easycd open at once, yes this is possible I checked, but as yet I have only one cd recorder so can't test the theory.

Might have 300 to burn hence as many cds as poss. necessary.

It sounds like it'll work. I'm still unceartain. I can see possible problems with the recording quality tho. I'd suspect there will be a lot of clicks, pops and that sort of thing. Especially with IDE drives, both hard-drive and CD-R. SCSI all around will help. Windows NT is probably the best way to go too.
