Guess I was not sweating the IDE drive but rather the AMD 64 drivers for 
any given DVD drive.  Specifically, I am looking at the Toshiba SD-R5372 
which is a rewriteable drive designed for the dual layer format.    They 
are claiming up to 8.5G of data for the cd's.  Since burning software is 
not included I can only assume that there are AMD 64 drivers available.
