1) Make sure you close the dip switch #7 on M2263SA. It should be
the switch for synchronous mode transfer.
2) Remove the terminating resistors from the drive in the middle of
the SCSI bus (in this case it's the M2263SA). If you've tried this
already, please ignore it.
3) The parity checking doesn't seem to matter much.
4) You can have any number of open connections in the middle of the bus.
