I've also seen stuff that implies (with spinning rust) that the retry
cycle can hang - a read times out, then the next attempt to read the
same data works fine.
It's *possible* the same applies to SSDs, in which case shortening the
timeout could be worthwhile.
And as Phil says, the critical fact is that the drive MUST come back
from la-la-land BEFORE the kernel times out.
Cheers,
