Hi Kris,
Yes, there is no option to change any termination setting - I never 
examined the SCSI Select when I had the 2.5.7.2 active for 60 seconds 
before immediately upgrading to 3.10.0. As my original 1996 BIOS 1.23 
didn't have any manual settings for this model, I wasn't the slightest 
bit concerned, particularly as a lot of the termination settings are 
only relevant to sharing external daisy-chained devices between two 
different systems, one at a time, according to the Adaptec hard copy 
manuals.
