        If you have a game the requires a disk/disc you can put on in each drive and you don't gotta worry about switching the discs out so often.

            Actually, I teach people about hardware and it would be vary cool also to say I have 4 CD drives too ;)

              I can see it now:

              "I have 4 cd-Rom drives. Although, since I have no SATA ports, I have no hard drive, I was able to create a set of CD's that work together to boot together a semi usable OS!"

              "What about saving data?"

              "Well DUH! That's what floppy drives are for. SHEESH!"

               ;D
