I thought that I had read the TLER was not useful for mdraid, so that
enterprise drives were not really advised for mdraid. Am I wrong about
this?
TLER just shortens the firmware's error recovery from something like
60 seconds down to 4 seconds. It's mainly useful in hardware RAID but
I can see it being useful with mdraid in the enterprise where you
can't afford to wait for the drive to do it's own recovery attempts.
