(57) [Summary] [Purpose] A hard disk drive connected by a daisy chain method automatically sets the terminating resistance. A low level signal "L" is output to a connection notification signal 5 output from a connector 1 of a terminal device, and a low level is propagated to a connection notification signal 6 input to a connector 2 of a host device. The upper device to which the low level is input opens the switch of the relay element and opens the terminating resistor.
In the terminating device, since the connector 2 is not connected, the switch of the relay element is short-circuited and the terminating resistor is connected.
