You didn't mention what drives you had attached, but I'm guessing they
were normal "desktop" drives.

I suspect (but can't confirm) that using enterprise drives with TLER /
ERC / CCTL would have reported the failure up the stack faster than a
consumer drive. The drives will report an error after 7 seconds rather
than retry for several minutes.

You may be able to enable the feature on your drives, depending on the
manufacturer and firmware revision.
