Need a SCSI Terminator

[bladerunner88]

So, I have a Mac SE that still Boots Up! But it has no internal HD, when I connect the Ext 40 it wont mount on the desktop as I need a SCSi Terminator.

Any thoughts on where could find such a thing?

TIA

Depending on where you are, e.g. you still can get these - Centronics50 SCSI Terminators - e.g. via Amazon.

Aha Thanks Much - That should do the trick!

Noooo. I'm getting flashbacks of the ‘good old days’ using SCSI.

I remember having to ensure certain devices were in a certain order for all to work – some scanners ‘preferred’ to be in a particular position regardless of their SCSI number.

I remember certain devices had to be switched on first/last/during a power-on session to be recognised.

I remember… sob. It’s too difficult. I don’t miss SCSI!
