Hi everyone!
I'm considering a FreeNAS build, and Error Correction Code (ECC) RAM is a must to prevent any potential errors in RAIDZ parity calculations. Unfortunately, only certain hardware supports ECC outside of the full-blown server scene.
I know most AMD chips and lower end Intel chips (celerons, pentiums, and low i3) support unbuffered ECC memory, but the motherboard support is a bit sparse (the ECC traces from cpu socket to dimm slots are frequently omitted in consumer boards, so even...
