Building a DVD Duplicator

[dudeman316]

I hope this is posted in the correct forum. But here goes.

I am wanting to build a DVD Duplicator for our church. I can get the tower, I can get the DVD Burners, I can get DVD Rom Drive. But What do I need in terms of power wattage & I have noticed that there is a 5.25" bay filled with a device that controlls everything... What is this device called & last question... Is a hard drive needed???

Please answer when you can... Thanks all.

awesome stuff thanks...

Now.. does anyone know what wattage power supply I would need?

[canadateck]

300Watts or more would do it.

Awesome. Last question... How does one plug all those DVD Recorders into on device? Does it have a place for all of these connections or is a seperate card needed to do this?

They use IDE Cables,There will be 2 for the (Burner's) one for a Rom to make the Master,This is how I think this one works,you can buy others that will burn to 7 (DVD Burners).

With this all you need is a Tower and a PS.
