If it has a pass thru connector, then either there is a way to enable termination, or it just happens to work, which would mean you should get a terminator for it (at any time, it might stop working, or start getting flaky, without any warning or logic to when and why it does so, in my experience anyway).
ALL SCSI chains MUST be terminated properly.
If the chain is very short and only has one device, you can sometimes get away without terminating it because there's not much room for the signals to echo. BUT you will get "mysterious" crashes and hangs and other failures...
