IMHO 5s for a "target abort" is way too short: If your physical disk has some problems (like seek errors, verify error, etc.) it can take very long for a write to complete. Usually one would prefer to see the data on disk over triggering some error. I don't know the spects, but I'd guess the suggested timeout is minutes, not seconds. Despite of that the question is how long does the target take to abort the command.
