Hate to disagree with Bryan, but a DVD-RW makes an OK CD burner. Keep the DVD-ROM so that you can rip & burn DVDs using any of a number of systems (DVDShrink, etc.).

I'm not saying it doesn't make an ok CD burner, just that my CDRW drives burn CDs much faster than my DVD burner can. His burner might burn them just as fast.

As for having two drives to make copies from, I've always used DVDShrink and copied the material to the HD, then the DVD so I don't know anything about doing it straight from drive to drive.

To me the determining factor would be the CD burn speed. If the CDRW isn't faster than the DVD burner then it wouldn't matter to me which stayed in.
