I'll try and bring my machine to Wednesday's meeting which has an
Ultra160 SCSI card in; it won't run at 320MB/s, but the disks would
never put out that much anyway, so it will be ample to test if they
work or not. Then you can decide what to do with them.

I'm just upgrading it from Sarge to DeMuDi, so hopefully it will all
work OK, even if not singing and dancing quite yet ;-) The only problem
I can foresee is a shortage of power leads from my PSU, but we could
just disconnect the CD drives or another hard disk. Or have some
gruesome PC-guts spilled out from another machine powering them...

See you,
