(Of course, since they're removable, it's conceivable that : yours are removed, but you presumably would have at least spotted the : sockets if you knew where to look.) Aha. Once I knew exactly where to look, I spotted them immediately: three mustard-colored resistor packs. I agree that they look difficult to remove. They're sandwiched between the SCSI connector and the main board: [][][][] <- power conn. ----------------------------------------------- <- main PCB ======== ======= ======= <- packs ------------------------ |______________________| <- SCSI conn. ------------------------------------------------ <- SCSI PCB Termination can easily be disabled on the new device, so I'll just keep the Viper at the end of the chain. Thanks for the information. -Jim.
