I concur.
Last week, Jim gave an excellent account of scsi termination issues which
essentially indicated that only the last device on a scsi chain need be
terminated.
A flame war then ensued as to whether 0 or 7 was the last address...+)

It's a double test. reduces the possibility of ram errors by half, and
takes interleaving out of the equation.
 RHB ran into troubles with a full load of 128's when he was fiddle farting
around with a G4 in his PTP. Reducing the ram to 4 x 128 in Bank A removed
a couple of those problems.
