Multiple Pioneer A04 Drives

[asalpopat]

Hi
I have successfully written to 2 x pioneer a04 drives in one computer system.
I am wondering if it is possible to use 4 a04 drives in one system using a promise ide controller.


Thanks

errr... i use my ao3 on a promise card in one machine and my ao5 on a promise card in another machine and i have no problems whatsoever with burning to dvdr

i've got 5 of them in this machine, with 5 (or 6) readers/writers mixed with 16 ibm deathstars and the main problem i have is that plextools wont install so in the scheme of things its no great problem although i must admit i think the cmd cards are more stable they realy dont like running 2 of them side by side. but as long as he gets something that works its got to be good (oh and i've got a dvdr and cdr on the same line and often burn to both with different software at the same time without coasters)
