I suspect that Wols means that these drive models cannot set SCTERC so
will retry for a very long time, requiring the block layer timeouts to
be set to 2+ minutes or else risk drive being kicked out by the kernel
whenever there is a minor problem.

If so, this a factual thing, in that manufacturers really did produce
drives that are sub-optimal for RAID.
