Re: Two LTO3 drives, different performance
may be your SCSI adapter on the 7420 does not support U320.
If possible replace the SCSI cards and test again, there may be a HW issue about the cables also, you tested the drives and both are OK, now time to test the cables and HBA's. If nothing changes you can also check the slot where HBA's installed, because all PCI slots on rp servers does not have same specs,

Re: Two LTO3 drives, different performance
20MB/s versus 320MB/s Burst looks like on one server you have an UW-320 SCSI whilst the other is just a FW-Diff 20 (very old).
IF you say your HBAs are practically the same -- then I suspect the Enclosure's BUS is probably NOT optimal and is only able to burst at FW-SCSI speeds.... Just a guess though. You can try opening up the innards of the fast and slow enclosures and see if the ribbon cables, chips used on the IC board are the same -- it will surely give yo a clue.
Also Was your 2nd Enclosured LTO3 CHEAPER than the first? If it was - then the may explain likely the issue. The ENclosure is likely using slow (for DLT era) SCSI internals...

Re: Two LTO3 drives, different performance
running LTT and collecting a support ticket usually can confirm this
can you attach it here for a review?
you should see the scsi negoziation running at 16 bit LVD and not 8 bit SE
