    I have a bunch of backed up DVD’s that I want to copy to my new 1TB hard drives.  What would be the best way to transfer these?  These are already ripped.

    1. Manually, one by one, this would take a few months.
    2. Connect 8 cheap Sata DVD drives to my Mobo and copy all at once.  Something cheap like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827118031.  This would cost me about $160+s/h.  I could sell them on eBay for a few bucks when I’m done.  This is assuming my Core 2 Duo E8500 with 2 GBs of ram can keep up with 8 drives. [i]CPU resources are at 1% with one drive while copying.  I guess the bigger question would be if my Asus P5QC and its Sata(3.0Gb/s) ports would hold up.[/i]

    Any other ideas?
