It doesn't make sense, and as Robert observed, UIDE simply overwrites the name with the last occurance. (It could show an error message, but I prefer the current behaviour.)

It certainly is one. To fix this, either remove "/D:Plextor" from SHSUCDX's command line, or replace it with "/D:?Plextor". This installs drives for a device driver named "PLEXTOR" if there's any, but still installs drives other device drivers if there's no "PLEXTOR" driver. (Read the SHSUCDX documentation for information about its switches.)
