Seagate does not make drives with the letters UW as part of the model
number. Although I can see the merit in your assumption, it is incorrect.
I have several of these drives and can assure you, that they are 68pin
SCSI-3 UW, not the 50-pin SCSI-2 variety.

Follow this link for more detailed information about this drive:

For those that do not have a web-enabled console, here is the ASCII spec
sheet:
(notice the "INTERFACE   -   Ultra SCSI" item)
