I want to get an external DVD burner that can write two identical discs at the exact same time. Does such a device exist?

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

A google search leads me to this one, besides that I only knew about those bigger and expensive duplicators like this LaCie.

Yeah, I saw that one. I don't think it's actually available yet.

I have to back up a lot of DVDs, and I always make two copies of everything. It would be so much easier if I could do them both at once. Is there any other way to do this? If I hook up two external drives at once, can they both write the same data at the same time?

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

Why don't you just buy a duplicator that has two DVD drives. It requires no computer, you just put your souce disk in, put a blank taget disk in the other drive, copy and it works on its own.
