It has been a while since I have looked at a SCSI server setup.
As far as I know all of the drives should auto-detect. You just need to make sure that it is only the last drive that is terminated, or use a cable that has a terminator on the end of it.
Does your server have an intelligent back-plane?
The servers we looked at had this which enabled the configuration... If it hasn't it might make the info I have provided null.
