Many thanks to Darren Dunham and Jon Polak for taking the time to
reply. Jon had the answer, in that the terminator I had was for
single-ended scsi, but the D1000 requires a terminator designed for
differential. Now that I have a terminator for differential scsi, the
netra and D1000 are happily working together.
