What the heck are termination resistors, anyway?

0
0

Termination resistors are little yellow or black (usually) things about 5mm tall, 25-30mm wide, and about 2mm thick with eight or ten pins sticking out the bottom. They’re used on SCSI hard disks to terminate the bus if the termination on the HD is enabled (usually with a jumper labelled ‘TE’). They can usually be found in groups of two or three near the SCSI connector, on the controller board of the drive. If they’re missing (you’ll probably see a row of empty pin holes), you might have the problem described in 2.2.5 above.
