I could have used this yesterday. I was slipstreaming some drivers into XP installations and had to burn 4 times and ran out of CD's. Got about 6 spindles of DVDs but didn't have any CDR's. This will really save on disks. Half the time I can't find a copy of what I need, but I keep iso's of everything on the NAS.
