Burn 3 DVDs at a time

[brucejackson]

I thought it should be somewhere around 35 cents

TY inkjet = good media. Have burned and printed over 1,000.

Verbatim inkjet = good medi. Have burned and printed over 600.

No coasters that weren't my fault.

I do like the coating on the Verbatims better, less drying time.

Can't burn 3 at a time on new Dell without plugging in an external, LOL.

BUT: It'll still burn 3 at a time - haven't done 4 at a time, yet.

I did check www.copystars.com today. You can start a 1 to 3 barebones for a little more than $150 shipped.

I found one selling barebone 3 target duplicator for $149
http://www.timelinedigitalinc.com/timeline-digital-duplicator-barebone-2030a-target-p-285.html
and
complete system 1 to 4 for $349

I guess both company are using ACARD controller which I think is reliable.
any suggestion on different controller?

DIMAVA:

I know we have been told that duplication requires all of the burners to be identical; same model with the same firmware revision, but it just isn't true. While I rarely need to do so, I have used Alcohol 120% to burn three copies simultaneously using three different burners from two different manufacturers. Just yesterday, I burned three 16X Verbatim DVD-Rs using a Pioneer DVR-115, an LG GSA-H10N, and an LG GSA-H42N (the LGs using different firmware versions). My computer is nothing special (Dell E510/Pentium 4 Prescott 630/2.5GB DDR2 PC2-4200 RAM running XP Home/sp 2 or XP Professional/sp 2). Two of the drives are internal IDE, the third is connected via an IDE to USB adapter. Last year, I used on several occasions Alcohol 120% with an LG GSA-4166B, the LG H10N, and an NEC ND-3550A. The point is you don't need a stand alone duplicator or identical drives to make multiple DVD backups.

[brucejackson]

I do agree that there is no need to use a stand alone in order to burn 3 DVDs at a time.
did you test it while you surf the internet or playing games?

[wtsinnc]

No. Whenever I am involved with creating a backup, I stay with the burning program and monitor the progress until the job is finished.

I thought about it, but didn't want to get tossed out of blockbuster for torching their rack.

Dimava = when you say "Are there any USB duplicators or something of that nature that would allow me to burn 3 copies of the same rar file at a time? " do you mean something like this - http://www.nexcopy.com/usb-duplicator-pc-based/ ?
