- I'll admit, Iomega's tech support seems to be lacking here.
-
- It's always been my understanding that one can put the terminator in between
- the cable and SCSI connector. It doesn't have to go on the (non-existant in
- this case) second SCSI connector.
-
- I once had an old GCC 20 megger for which this was a recommended setup, and I
- trust GCC.
