With 6.0.1 and the proper drivers installed, the GS, without DQ, can
access basic files (txt, gif, wav, etc) on CD-ROMs formatted in
ISO-9660 and High Sierra.

You should not need the external terminator if your HD is terminated.
 Just put the CD 150 between the RAMFast and the HD.  My only other
hint is to have the SCSI ID# of the CD 150 lower than that of the HD.
