One way is to use the same terminators that Apple uses on its SCSI drives.
It fits on the end of the last SCSI device.

 ----------       ------------       ------------       -----------    ------
| UNIX Box |-----| SCSI DRIVE |-----| SCSI DRIVE |-----| SCSI TAPE |--| TERM |

I have made a little switch unit, that can be adaptive to any SCSI drive to
allow changing the address just buy pushing a button. This makes setting the
SCSI address very easy.

Good luck,
Charles
