copying multiple DVDs

I'd like to build a Linux machine that will simultaneously burn several 
(say, 10) DVDs from an original ISO file. It is our DVD, so no copyright 
issue is involved here.

I find burning from a single burner too slow, if I want to burn, say, 
100 copies quickly.

What I have in mind is to connect 10 burners to one machine. Then, to 
have 10 instances of K3B (or some similar disk-burning software, K3B is 
best though...) running, each instance using 1 of the 10 burners.

Is this at all possible? The PCs I've seen have at most 4 SATA ports, 
and one of these is for the hard drive. That leaves only 3 for 3 burners.

If I connect a DVD burner to SATA ports 2, 3, and 4 (#1 is used by the 
hard disk), will this idea work?

How do I connect more than 4 SATA drives to a PC?

Thanks in advance,

Obet Verzola

PS. To the curious: I work with farmers and we have a training video for 
farmers that we produce on demand, and sometimes we need to do so quickly.
