Yep, I only had one that's got active termination, but I 'Bayed up some that Chinse Costume Jewelry that I love so much for a lot less money than that, IIRC. I'll see if I can dig up a link from my purchase history, they're exactly what techknight just described.

In the meantime, it's might actually better to buy those the high quality internal Ultra cables with the terminator hanging off the last drive position. I just hooked the terminated end up to an UltraSCSI Barracuda, the second position up to one of my very, very inexpensive, unterminated SCA->internal_68_pin_+_50 pin adapters, and plugged a 50 pin Ribbon Cable into that. It should work better than the unterminated adapters I bought.

The terminated 68->50 adapters I saw on eBay were in the $50-$100 range. 8-o
