Yeah, this morning I concluded I really should be running ECC ram. I sometimes wonder why people people don't run ECC ram more frequently. I remember a decade ago, when ram was much, much less dense, people fretted about alpha particles randomly flipping bits, but that seems to have died down.
I know, of course, there is some added expense, but browsing on Newegg, the additional RAM cost is pretty minimal. I see 2GB ECC sticks going for about $12 more than similar non-ECC sticks. It's the motherboards that can handle ECC which are the expensive part. Now I've got to see what is a good motherboard for a file server. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
