There does not appear to be a terminator, as the drive is internal.
When I have it inside he G3, the SCSI chain shows it with an ID of 0
on the SCSI chain, which, since I want it to be the brain in the IIsi,
is where I want it to be. The G3's startup drive is an IDE, so I know
I'm not creating problems there. The only other thing on the IIsi's
SCSI chain is the floppy drive (at the factory set position, 5, I
think), and the hard drive worked just fine until I "downgraded" it to
OS 7.1. I zapped the PRAM, it didn't help.
