As near as I can tell from the > spec sheets, they both should support 160MB/s. There are several possibilities. - your cabling or termination isn't right for Ultra160. (You need a "twisty flat" cable with a terminator block on the end.) - you jumpered the drives for single ended mode - the SCA->HD68 adapters don't do LVD I would guess that the last one is probably the problem, since the first two are more obvious.
