You almost go it all.
There is a few known problem which Adaptec have admitted to - when copying 
from Cdrom to CDR/CDRW units - and that is that modern CDROM's go to 
'sleep' (aka power saving)
Make sure that if you copying CD's you first copy to the harddisk then to 
the recording unit. There is an option to do this in the software.
Second problem make sure the harddisk you a copying to is less than 4Mb 
partition and (as indicated below) you need 1GB free disk space. If the 
harddisk is 4GB or larger the software spits the dummy in some cases with 
buffer overruns.

Go to the Adaptec site for more relevations about there software.
They have obviously been taking lessons from Microsoft.
