I purchased an Iomega/Plextor 12x10x32 drive with BurnProof from ebaker. I'm going to install it tomorrow. I currently have a cdrom drive installed and plan to add this CDRW in conjunction to it. So do I need to adjust any pins for slave, master, etc? Also, do I need to switch it to DMA? Any and all advice regarding this or any other things I know I'm leaving out is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You will have to set the jumper for one of the drives to slave. I assume that drive would be the burner.
You can also set the drives to DMA. This will increase performance, but may hurt stability - not sure of your config. Go ahead and try it. If it becomes an issue, you can always go back and disable DMA.
