        It depends on the card and your devices, I am assuming that the JAZ can be
terminated since it is at the end of the chain, if so then it depends
whether your internal device has termination capabilities and whether the
controller can turn off it's terminator. Since you are using an Adaptec I
would assume it is possible. TTYL
