When I was selling computers in a retail store, Apple made a SCSI terminator.
It looks like a SCSI cable with the cable part chopped off. It plugs into
the second SCSI port of the last device in your chain. As usual with Apple
cables,it was overpriced (around $30, as I recall). I assume they still
produce this device. Try your local ComputerLand or BusinessLand. For
some reason, I find that the Mac discount houses don't usually carry them.
