2009年5月7日 · Since servers are a shared resource where up-time and reliability are important, ECC RAM is generally used with only a modest difference in price. ECC RAM is also used in CAD/CAM workstations were small bit errors could cause calculation mistakes which become more significant problems when a design goes to manufacturing.

2009年5月7日 · ECC RAM is more expensive than non-ECC, is much more sensitive to clock speeds, and can incur a small (1-2%) performance hit. If it helps, an analogy that works is RAM to RAID controllers. On your PC, that hardware-assisted software RAID built into your chipset is great protection against single disk failures.

2015年3月24日 · inxi can do that: # On this desktop PC non ECC-RAM modules are used, so it outputs `EC: None`: $ sudo inxi -m -xxx Memory: Array-1 capacity: 32 GB devices: 4 EC: None Device-1: ChannelA-DIMM0 size: 4 GB speed: 1333 MHz type: DDR3 (Synchronous) bus width: 64 bits manufacturer: Kingston part: KHX1600C9D3/4GX serial: B7ED5A53 # This server has 16 GB ECC RAM: $ sudo inxi -m -xxx Memory: RAM: total ...

2016年10月21日 · UPDATE 3: I bought a Xeon E3-1220v5 now which of course supports ECC and should meet the requirement from the manual. I ran all the tests again to check for ECC functionality and the results are basically identical: From the comments at Puget Systems, it also seems like that the ecc_check.c program doesn't work on Xeon and Core i7 processors..

2023年10月1日 · Kingston Technology KVR16LS11/8 8GB 1600MHz DDR3L (PC3-12800) 1.35V Non-ECC CL11 SODIMM Intel Laptop Memory; A-Tech 4GB DDR2 800MHz SODIMM PC2-6400 1.8V CL6 200-Pin Non-ECC Unbuffered Laptop RAM Memory Upgrade Module; That options appears on newegg it for Laptop Memory (only about ECC) and Server Memory (about ECC and Buffered/Registered ...

2017年10月9日 · You do not NEED to use ECC RAM in a home server. If you are using ZFS though, ECC is generally believed to be highly advisable (but if you dig through basis of the claims, not really more so then for any other type of file systems) If the data you are storing is vitally important, and loosing even 1 file is a massive problem, get ECC Ram.

I've used ECC ram in servers for a few years now. ECC really shines when you are using your machine heavily, as in "it's on more than 12-16 hours a day". Little whitebox servers I've built without ECC have, sooner or later, developed "issues" that required a reboot, but the ECC machines have never had these.

2019年1月12日 · Next confirmation: ECC works on Gigabyte's X399 DESIGNARE EX board just fine. I tested with 4x 16GB 2Rx8 modules (CT16G4WFD824A) and 8x 8GB HPE 2Rx8 unbuffered ECC modules. In fact I was able to boot the machine with 4x 16GB + 4x 8GB resulting in 96GB ECC RAM Linux 4.14 kernel boot messages with 8x 8GB modules:

2020年8月18日 · The cost of 64GB of more normal RAM and the cost of 32GB of ECC RAM can be quite similar, and I see more general use for the 64GB RAM. To test data corruption, why not create a RAM disk on your current computer, and create some large, complex files, such as an 8 GB image, like a picture you made in GIMP or Photoshop of a bunch of different ...

Many Asus motherboards with AMD processors support ECC RAM; I am using the older M5A78L/USB3 with ECC RAM (enabled). If the specification says ECC RAM is supported, it will work, but must be enabled in BIOS. The all-important point is that the RAM must be unbuffered ECC, as against registered ECC RAM which is only for servers designed for it ...
