SCSI Ultra320 80->68 adapter

I need to connect 80pin SCA Ultra320 SCSI hdd to 68pin.
There are rumors that some bad "passive" adapters with problematic termination can fry the HDD. The adapter we got is Assmann ABSCA-2. Hard drive is 'Fujitsu MAW3073NC'
Do we need to set any jumpers before turning it on?

We already had problems with some noname adapter. BIOS would read the drive manufacturer and model ok. but then there were numerous buffer io errors and it didn't work. Fortunately the drive is still ok.
