I tried to burn at 16x from the hard drive (hda) to the burner (hdb).
Actually the point which is not clear to me is whether or not I can put the
burner in hdd ? In that case, it sould be on a different IDE controller but
it will be on the same controller than my cd reader which do not support
ATA100. I don't know if this should cause any problem (like slow down or
whatever) to the burner ?
