It's probably a hardware issue.

Search for `scsi faq' on google. I don't know the exact URL.

The `term power' bit sounds wrong to me: this will set the device so
it supplies power to the terminator. It is only needed if you have a
very long SCSI chain. (Normally, the adapter card is able to handle
that.)

You have to enable termination (usually labeled `term') on the last
device on the bus. Some disks don't have a jumper, so you might need
to buy a separate terminator.
