Figure 2-1. DAC960 Controller Termination Examples

Note

For this discussion, assume that the illustrated internal
and external connectors are both on the same channel.

It is better to terminate the ends of the SCSI bus itself
than it is to terminate the end devices on the bus. This
allows hot swap devices to be added or removed from
the SCSI bus without affecting termination.
