Did you disable the termination on the buslogic controller?  I have a 
different card so you may need to rtfm, but on mine at boot time I type a 
Ctrl-B and get the SCSI BIOS setup and one of the options is enable 
disable termination.  I disable on controller termination and stick 
on an external terminator unless there are no internal drives.

Only exception is I have an Adaptec 1740 EISA card that refuses to work 
with external drives unless it is (in theory) incorrectly terminated on 
the card as well as both ends of the bus.
