I've seen what you are talking about, it's just a resister network and
it's passive, when I think I need an active terminator.
Alas the drive in question doesn't support that type of terminator
(seagate ST39175LW), so I need a terminator on the cable or inline. I
think I still need to jumper the TP on the drive to power the terminator
on the cable. Am I correct?

:) I have a pile of 8-pin terminators lying around in a box somewhere. I
:)pulled them off of some 105MB Seagate drives a few years ago. How's that
:)for real? :-) (3 per device, attached to the drive's controller board.)
