Yep, mine's arrived and is working fine. However, the cable is an
unterminated affair (50 pin IDC). No manual for the tape drive.
There's one jumper on it marked "TP". Does one think that that enables
or disables internal termination or does it have nothing to do with
termination? Any ideas at all?

Google doesn't reveal anything. :-(
