W/WD drives

Terminating the drive

ST19171W drives are terminated with permanently mounted IC
active terminators. If you install one of these drives and it is not
on the end of the SCSI bus, disable the terminators by removing
the jumper from pins 15 and 16 of connector J2. If you install the
drive on the end of the SCSI bus, enable termination by installing
a jumper on pins 15 and 16 of connector J2 (see Figure 11).

Note. Use active (ANSI SCSI-2 Alternative 2) terminators when

terminating the bus.

ST19171WD drives do not have internal terminators or any other
way of adding internal termination to the drive. You must provide
external differential termination to these drives when termination
is required.
