How Many CDs Can You Burn at Once?

kfs27 asks: "In an attempt to help a professor of mine record and duplicate his lectures. I have been asked to put together a CD duplicating box. Commercial products seem to be very expensive and I figured a PC with some SCSI160 Cards (HW or SW Raid maybe), SCSI Burners and a 15K RPM drive (size not an issue) could do the job for cheaper. But the question is, how many CDs can you burn at once of 30 minutes, mono audio. 10 at a time would be excellent I think. More of course better. Cost is not a huge issue, as long as it's less than Commercial Duplicators, it's more of an experiment, but must be stable and easy to operate (I'd be willing to script up a frontend)."

Plenty. Is there a pile of Kenny G. . .

That I can light off? :)

I don't know...

... but I'd like to burn all existing copies of Windows XP and Office XP, plus all copies of their source code. That'd make a nice bonfire.

Perhaps Bill Gates could be the Guy.

HA! How many CDs can you burn?

Somehow, I had linked that in my mind with the *previous* Ask Slashdot story. Fahrenheit 451, indeed! More like Fahrenheit 200 for these chunks of plastic.

How many? How about all of them?

Just need to build the bonfire big enough.

Heck, I'll even show you how it's done. Lemme just grab my sister's Backstreet Boys collection...

Use caution when burning CD's

Remember what happened to those Texas College students burning those logs? Don't build your CD burning pile too high. Stay clear when you ignite it. Be careful! Children's Barney CDs tend to ignite quickly. Don't burn only Brittney Spears. Don't leave out your David Hasslehoff and Shatner CD's. Be creative with your bad artists.
