Install 2 DVD writers on 1 computer

Does anyone have any experience installing 2 DVD writers in the same computer? I'm trying to use the DVD for daily backup. I have 1 Lite-On 8X that came with Sonic InCD and an HP 8X DVD writer. I have used 2 CD-burners on the same machine before and it works but when I replace them with DVD burners, I get a problem. I am using DVD+RW media. When I insert a media in either drive, I am able to write data. But when I insert media into the other drive I get 0 bytes free. Both are formatted, of course. I'va also tried Nero V6.3. Does anyone have any software or hardware suggestions? Thanks.
