Its probably normal if someone is questioning some old paradigma, that such reaction are normal. Few notes:

1) Because you now invented some imaginary problems which i have, i dont really have any, my setup is working, as much as i tested it. BTW i never had hooked more that 1 device.
2) Nobody really have experience with these particular adapters.
3) Nobody was really able to elaborate about performance its clipped or not.
4) Nobody pointed out some diagnostic software to check setup, if terminator so important there should be some check / test.

Im not saying that you are not right, but arguments IMHO are not good and asking for something better.

Im old goal oriented goatman, i care about facts and freedom, not about egos+prejudices. Hoarding=sickness. If you want respect, gain it by your behavior. I hate stupid SW limits, SW=virtual world, everything should be possible if you have enough raw HW.

I find that PCem suppors SCSI, so its nice way how to get some SCSI experience (i already did).

I wonder if exist some Sata or IDE to SCSI adapters? Because otherwise real SCSI is not big deal (im tired of noise mechanical drivers) and there are fast PCI IDE controllers too.
I only saw in some Phils video SD card to SCSI adapter and it was quite expensive..

I know that SCSI is probably only way how to get fast storage on 386 or 486, but i care only about starting with SS7 machines or faster is physical sector, PCem can emulace older ones fine.
