Hal, there is only one down side I can see to doing it that way---CDRW is limited to PIO Mode 4, 16 MB/s. Yeah, I know ATA 100/66 is just a split second burst number, but I would still rather have the two HDD's together, or at least the CDROM with the primary HDD, and the burner with the backup drive.
