    Hello, I 'm trying to figure out what is the best way for my DVD burner and my cd-rw writer to be hooked up without any or few mistakes. The way I have them now are as follows:

    IDE belt 1 = Harddrive - Master (no slave)
    IDE Belt 2 = DVD burner - Master and CD-rw writer as the slave

    Is this the best setup or what should I do?

    Sure that will work just fine. Some people may recommend that you move the CD-RW to the Primary IDE as a Slave and that will improve CD-RW to DVD-RW copy speeds - personally I would keep it as it is.

    P.S: a belt is called a(n) (IDE) cable.
