Installing SECOND DVD (original post in wrong forum)

By mistake I posted this in "general formum" also. Did not mean to
crosspost.

Using win XP home, sp2. 1 GIG memory. Motherboard... MSI KM2M ,
KM266-8235-6A6LVM4DC-00

Currently have 80 gig wd hdd as primary, and 40 gig hdd as slave on one
ribbon.

Have NEC DVD+RW nd-1000 on another ribbon.

Have new SONY DVD/CD, DVD+/-R dual layer,double layer to install.

Should I slave one of the DVD to another? (which would be slave)?

Or should I make each HDD as primary and make each DVD as slave to the HDD?

Thanks,

bently

Secondary IDE slave.
