magnus> The "correct" way to connect the drives would be:
magnus> motherboard (1) -> short SCSI lead ->  drive (1)
magnus> motherboard (2) -> short SCSI lead -> (terminator) -> drive (2)
 
What I saw in the old days are:

motherboard (1) -> short SCSI lead ->  drive (1)
motherboard (2) -> (terminator) -> short SCSI lead -> drive (2)

Although either which (1) or (2) has the (terminator) doesn't matter.

I can't remember whether (1) or (2) should have another
terminating register inserted in the hard disk drive.
