If you need termination power try APS SCSI Sentry for 39.95 plus 19.95 for the termination power power supply. It lets you know if the SCSI bus supplies termination power using a green led, if the bus does not have term power you can use the power supply. It also optimizes the SCSI bus by filtering out line noise . I have two of them one on a IIGS. It works great , I used to have trouble booting the hard drive on my IIGS, until I installed the SCSI sentry. APS Technologies sells a SCSI terminator , that supplies external termination power. It uses a power adaptor included with the terminator to supply termination power if the computer does not supply term power. The terminator also has indicator lights red & green. One light indicates that the SCSI chain has termination power, & two lights one red & one green arrow light flash letting you know the SCSI chain is operating properly. It's called SCSI Sentry II for 69.95 (item # 1009-018 ). They have their original SCSI Sentry for 39.95 (item #1009-017) plus 19.95 for the termination power adaptor ( item# 101173). The SCSI Sentry also improves SCSI performance. APS phone# is 800-395-5862 & web site address is www.apstech.com.
