Simple - don't!

If you attach SCSI-2 devices (50-pin, 10MHz) to the CSPPC SCSI bus, the entire SCSI chain will be slowed down to 10MB/s maximum speed.

If you keep only SCSI Ultra-Wide (68-pin, 20MHz) and Scsi Ultra (50 pin, 20MHz) devices on the CSPPC bus, it will operate up to 40MB/s (when addressing Ultra-Wide devices) and 20MB/s (when addressing ultra devices). Yes, you can have these connected at the same time without losing speed.

Do yourself a favour - don't cripple your CSPPC scsi bus, just buy a cheap zorro adapter and use that for any SCSI-2 devices you need to access.
