4 Quantum Atlas IV 9.1Gb HDD + 1 Quantum Atlas V 9.1Gb HDD on the U2W chain. I also have a DVD, Burner, Standard CDROM, and Zip 100 drive on the Wide channel

maybe some more detail is required, but here is what i understand...
you have 4 atlas IV's on a 50 pin cable and 1 atlas IV 68pin UW with a ZIP on the UW aswell....
as for the CD-Rom's... are they all IDE??? (IDE CD-rom, IDE DVD, IDE burner)??
Now, If i have any mistakes please correct me as i am prety much guessing from little detail you gave...
If you have 50 pin atlas IV drives, then it explains the whole situation...
If you ran a benchmark on the UW drive alone it should be good, but if you benchmark them all in a raid, then that slows down the whole scsi bus to the speed of the 50 pin drives. which is like 20MB/s sync
If you give more details it would heelp... give specific details as to cable types, adaptors convertors termination etc... (dont forget external devices too.
