I've got a second hand WD7000-FASST SCSI host adaptor with no documentation.

I want to get it working with Linux, but am having difficulties.  Not
knowing what the card is set for (IRQ, DMA, address, etc) is a real
pain.

Can anyone out there help me with the jumper settings for this card?

I've figured out that W6 is used to enable/disable the floppy
controller.

One thing that I'd like to know is whether the terminator resistors
on the board need to be pulled out for an external device, OR for an
internal device.  There's a jumper "W5" right next to the resistors...is
this to enable/disable the termination on the board?  or for something else
entirely.

I've already tried www.wdc.com and ftp.wdc.com - it seems that they're
only interested in providing information on their new stuff.

Any help would be appreciated.

Craig
