That is exactly what I've been talking about. Can md implement
timeouts and not just leave it to the drivers?

I can't believe it but last night another array hit the dust when
1 of the 12 drives went bad. This year is just a nightmare for
me. It brought all the network down until I was able to mark it
failed and reboot to remove it from the array.
