Mac Pro - TWO Superdrives?

[andym172]

Is it possible that you can use the two superdrives to do the same task, in the same application, at the same time?

For example; uploading two cd's to iTunes at the same time? Burning two cd's in Toast? Copying two DVD's to your hard drive using Handbrake?

Only one way to find out right?

Only if the application were specially written to address two drives in parallel. Don't know of any that are, short of the custom embedded code in CD/DVD duplicators.

You'll need to make copies (copy & rename) of the applications to run multiple instances. It CAN be done. Some programs can access multiple drives though.

Oh and in before Multimedia.
