Adaptec calls this their Speedflex technology. It does require that the
SE and LVD devices be on separate cables, which means you can't mix and
match LVD/SE devices on the external cable and get full speed from both.

I could use it with my setup, but I've decided to keep the 2940UW
installed for now because it allows me to keep more devices active,
concurrently.
