- lorenzfx 11y agoSee a quote from Matt(hew) Ahrens (zfs developer)[0]: There's nothing special about ZFS that requires/encourages the use of ECC RAM more so than any other filesystem. [...] I would simply say: if you love your data, use ECC RAM. Additionally, use a filesystem that checksums your data, such as ZFS.
