I want it to be able to hopefully burn multiple m-discs at a time at slow speed, from a fast drive, no gpu, all it will do is burn.

It has these specs

2 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (single at x16 or dual at x8/x8 mode)
1 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots (at x4 mode, 2.5GT/s)
2 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 (2.5GT/s)
2 x PCI
lots of sata 3gbps ports

it's a bit confusing for me, I built the rig 10 years ago but never really learned how computers worked and then went on to use laptops. I'm going to rebuild it but the tech is old so it's not easy to find much information about ssds that will work on it.

Is there an adapter or something I can stick in backwards compatible with a newer ssd in and get decent speeds and get bottlenecked that it supports? At least faster than 3gbps.
