I have written a simple udev rule calling a bash script to set the timeouts on all connected devices. I would like to a) provide this to anybody who feels they may need it and b) know if anybody sees any potential issues with this. It seems to work fine for me over a couple reboots...
contents of udev rule:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="block", KERNEL=="[sh]d[a-z]", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/settimeout"
contents of /usr/local/bin/settimeout:
#!/bin/bash
[ "${ACTION}" == "add" ] && {
/usr/sbin/smartctl -l scterc,70,70 ${DEVNAME} || echo 180 > /sys/${DEVPATH}/device/timeout
}
