I suspect that a SCSI controller, and an external LUN controller
with the drives in it would work better. I would not want the load
of 6 drives burring at the same time on the PC's power supply.
Depending on the burn speed, you might run into data transfer
problems on the PCI bus in any case. You could run external SATA
drives, but the cabling would be a problem and you still have the
PCI bus speed limit.
