If you have a standard 68-pin U160 SCSI internal cable you an just connect
the U320 drive to that with no changes -- Adaptec sells the same cable for
both and the terminator is the same. If you had a U320 controller then the
older U160 cable might not work despite the connectors being the same
because there is more signal loss with the faster standard. Adaptec has
changed from a flat-twist cable to a round-twist cable to accomodate the
newer standard.
