For each drive, the driver timeout (/sys/block/.../device/timeout) must be longer than the drive's timeout (smartctl -l scterc). Note that scterc is in deciseconds, while the driver uses seconds. Enterprise drives typically power up with 7.0 second timeouts. The few SSDs I've been playing with power up with 4.0 second timeouts. Without ERC, the drives I've played with will perform error recovery for about two full minutes, ignoring the world for the duration.
