Dear GVP, I'm planning to connect a CD-ROM to my GVP Series II SCSI
Hostadapter (A500). The problem is, that I dont know which
Terminatoresistor is to remove. The CD-ROM is external (Toshiba
XM3401 B). Do I have to remove the termination of the internal HD
(Maxtor Cheyenne Series 7120S 120MB) or is there a Jumper on the
Hostadapter which I have to remove? Sorry for this silly Question, but
my Dealer did only deliver an english manual. I think the Controller
was "grey imported", so there was no German registration card or
manual 🙁 BTW, does the gvpscsi.device understand SCSI-Direct
commands? My ROM-version is V4.5.

SCSI termination is not an exact science. Experimentation will be the
final solution. My recommendation is to start by terminating the
last drive on the chain. If that doesn't work, then try different
configurations until you find the one that allows the system to boot
and work reliably.
