Hmm, I'm a little surprised to see this FreeBSD question
posted into a NetBSD newsgroup which I just read for the 
first time ...

I don't quite understand your configuration.

Which drives are WIDE ? The external drive ?

Why is the external drive not the one that is terminated ??

Mixing normal and WIDE drives ought to work ...

BTW: What system release is that ?
