Do true hardware RAID cards, specifically the various LSI based cards, automatically enable CCTL / TLER and set the appropriate timeout delay on drives plugged into them, or is that something that should be done manually before putting the drives on the controller?
IE: I buy a stack of enterprise based drives for HW based RAID. Do I need to configure each drive one at a time while on a HBA with a program like smartctl to enable CCTL / TLER and set a appropriate timeout delay prior to connecting the drives to the LSI HW based RAID card?
