I always thought the logic board provided termination power in Macs, but my Performa 630s (two of them) will only boot (gets to Welcome to macintosh, then stops, mouse still moves) with a CD Drive installed if I enable the Term Power jumper on the back of the drives.
Obviously I don't want to supply termination power from two places on the bus so, does anyone know what is going on? Do you need to enable Term Power on the CD in a 630?
@Durosity @joshc @Bolle @MrFahrenheit @croissantking - any idea? How are the CD Drives in your 630s jumpered? Remember you have to remove the metal cover over the hard disk before the CD Drive pulls out
