For SparcStation-1, the following is true (to my knowledge):
* There are a set of terminators internally on the CPU board.
As they are soldered in, removal seems to be contraindicated.
* The internal drives are on stub cables, and should *not*
be terminated.
* All external devices should be unterminated *except* for the
last in the chain.
* Lunchboxes (Personal Disk Packs (PDP) and Personal Backup Packs (PBP)
may or may not come with the small cable external terminator. I can't
remember whether we decided to include them (I hope so).
* P-boxes (ECD expansion shoebox- disk && tape) comes with the large
SCSI cable external terminator.
