The 2940W does the same thing.

If you use the wide connector and ONLY connect
a narrow device, then if you have the card terminate
the Hi Byte then it will probably work.

If you want to Mix Narrow and Wide on the external
Wide cable, No adapter is going to help you
It just another device on the Bus.
You just need to have the proper termination.
