    No you are limited to 2 devices per IDE Channel. To connect more you will need to purchase and install a PCI IDE Controller such as http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=111199
    You can then hook up another 2 IDE devices.

    why bother with 3 drives? could you not just create a disc image in .iso form or some other format nero likes ( .nrg i think ) and use the image to burn 2 discs in one go?

    To go for more you will need a controller, other wise your going the expensie avenue of an external scsi drive array.

    What you can do is single Hd and burner on primary as slave. Teh secondary ide for two additional burners and just do 2 at a time. Failing that as said above all three drives being burers do an image of the cd and burn 3 together from that image.
