Testing In RAID Array (MegaRaid)

Hi All,

Just started researching about Raid / disk monitoring and I seem to be
finding a mix of conflicting and outdated data for my setup.

Server is running 4 x Intel SSD behind a MegaRaid Controller. I am trying
to configure smartd to to run daily short tests and once a week on Sunday
at midnight a long test on each drive.

I see this example:

#/dev/sdc -d 3ware,0 -a -s L/../../7/01
#/dev/sdc -d 3ware,1 -a -s L/../../7/02
#/dev/sdc -d 3ware,2 -a -s L/../../7/03
#/dev/sdc -d 3ware,3 -a -s L/../../7/04

Which would be suitable so something like

#/dev/twa -d sat+megaraid,4 -a -s L/../../7/01 -m [email protected]
#/dev/twa -d sat+megaraid,5 -a -s L/../../7/02
#/dev/twa -d sat+megaraid,6 -a -s L/../../7/03
#/dev/twa -d sat+megaraid,7 -a -s L/../../7/04


Does that look somewhat correct? I am still researching the other flags so
I know what to add for when it should send me an e-mail.

Here are some outputs from my server:
