Previously I inquired regarding burning Dvd's via an external drive on a USB 2.0 connection. It sounds as though this can be done, however here is my last (promise) question regarding this issue.

My machine has a FSB speed of 266mhz with a USB 1.1 motherboard. I have installed a USB 2.0 PCI card. I intend to use an existing SONY Burner and a generic External drive enclosure, and make the unit portable to a couple of different machines. I don't expect to burn at blazing speeds, in fact the Sony is capable of only 2.4.

AM I ASKING TOO MUCH???

Burning questions should be posted in the forum: DVD burning

That is where your last thread was moved.:)

You will get more definitive answers in that forum.

No. 2.4x speed is around 3-4 MB/s. USB2.0 should do that easily.
