Optical drives and PCI controllers

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice? Currently I have two optical drives and two hard drives occupying all of my mainboard IDE channels. I want to add a DVD burner to the system. Is it OK to add it via a PCI IDE controller? I have read that optical drives don't work well on PCI controllers. Is that true? Can anyone recommend a good PCI card that would work well with a DVD burner?

Many thanks.....Scott
