While from a technical standpoint, there's a standard impedance that
loads the line, so it is "terminated". There's nothing the user does to
the drive that changes it. So I should have said it doesn't have any
user-set termination options.
Electrically, it doesn't matter whether the master or slave is at the
end of the line. Neither's different in that regard.
