and for reference what shoudl and what should not be set for use on macs?

One of the drives (that i found the spec for ) has the following

Terminator Power * 2 (to set either Drive Supplies Bus, Drive Supplies Own, or Bus 
Supplies Drive)
Enable T-Res

Start Delay (12 secs * ID)
Motor Start
Parity Enable
Write Protect

I'd guess that termination need enabling but which type? and also "motor start"

in case it help the drive info links:
