TSGL: A PROGRAM TO CONTROL THE SOUND ON A CD

[Trio800_BonBon]

It depends on how much hard drive space you have. If 
you don't have a lot of space then you need to DL to 
CDRW. But using the hard drive is a whole lot easier.

Dieter recommended a SATA drive. I thought those 
require the new motherboards. It doesn't sound like you 
have a newer computer. IF not then you would need an 
IDE drive.

Several Questions:
How much free space do you have on your hard drive(s)?
Do you have USB 2.0 ports
Are you downloading wave files or MP3s?
