Yes, I thought I made clear that the eject commands depended on using the Master/Slave IDE cable.
If you move the upper optical drive to the lower bay, but connect it to the Master socket on the cable, the Eject keys will still work.
BUT if you put two optical drives in an MDD, the single Master/Slave IDE bus will NOT have enough bandwidth.
AND where do you buy an IDE DVD burner today?
To use two optical drives, a PCI SATA card and two optical drives is the best solution, but then the Eject commands will NOT work, and you need the nice, free utility: Ardiem for Mac.
Do a search: Ardiem for Mac You will see lots of useful infromation.
