I have heard those thing a bunch of times but, personally i don't see any slow down using:

A SCA 80 pin 10000rpm
and a UW 68 pins 7200rpm.

They go at theyr "maximum" speed (the SCA if faster as aspected...~36MB/s versus the less than 30MB/s of the other)

NOTE- this on CSPPC UWSCSI controller... no idea about the BPPC one.

isn't those thing IDE related?

@stopthegop

"You're mistaken. If you have a "Narrow" (8 data bits per cycle) device on a bus with "Wide" (16 bits per cycle) devices and "Wide" controller(s), then the overall width of the data path is 8 bits. "

yes under such situation your right but we weren't speaking about 8 bits Narrow devices and AFAIK, (if mixed) they requires a particulat termination (are seen as 2 different chain)

Edit- and the SCA (as you know) are forced in SE under Amiga controllers
