To cut a very long story short the SCSI spec states that the
host device (Computer) must provide a +5v line on the SCSI
connections to supply the terminator resistors. 

Guess what, the Mac plus doesn't supply this voltage
so even if you use plug terminators your SCSI chain
still can't figure out that anything is connected to it.

If you are handy with a soldering iron and feel happy
messing about inside you gear let me know and I'll
talk you through what to do.
