You missed my point. By "end of cable" I meant attached to an 80 pin
device at the end of a non-Ultra, non-LVD SCSI cable used on a
non-Ultra, non-LVD SCSI chain. As a passive terminator, it is not
acceptable on LVD+, if it will work at all. It will work on Ultra chain
with only HBA and one drive, and might work with another device in
between.
