As part of my job req I need to burn two copies of a whole lot of pictures at the end of each day. Previously, I'd burn one, then the other... but my boss has to wait until they're done to go home, and he's tired of waiting
Current setup is a XP laptop with 3GB of ram but an older proc (not in my hands at the moment... guessing P4) with a 18x burner in a external closure connected via firewire.
He's willing to upgrade the lappy which it probably needs anyhow, but I'm wondering if it would be possible to burn to a second external burner at the same time. If so, what would be the best way to accomplish that? One off of firewire, the other off of usb (always thought to stay away from usb burners, but there seems to be a lot of them available... with decent reviews too). Or is there a way to add additional firewire device support?
I know this might seem like a lot of trouble to knock 20 minutes of our time, but it's work that runs late into the evening... plus it's his wallet
