Thank you. I agree that it is easy to find a $5 adapter without termination. As I mentioned in my message, I didn't have any trouble finding those. The one you just linked to lacks termination. It's finding one with termination, and preferably, one that allows terminating upper and lower bytes independently which is difficult.

If you are going to put the drive at the end of the chain, and if the drive has on-board termination, then you are correct, the adapter does not need termination. However, the drives I would like to use do not have on-board termination and so I need an adapter with termination capabilities. The drives I would like to use are also available at ten for $60 and have a 36 GB capacity.
