devices on an Adaptec 2940UW card, using separate 50 & 68 pin cables?
I'd like to do that, but then I'd have another big ribbon cable taking
up room in my PC here.

I've run a SCSI-3 hard drive on the wide internal connector, and SCSI-2
CD-ROM and tape drive on the internal 50-pin connector of the 2940UW.
Works fine. When you're doing that though, you can't use the external
connector on tbe back. With a 2940UW-PRO, you can use all 3 connectors
at once, which I have also done.
