Still no support for ECC RAM. When is someone going to take a leadership position?
- ianlevesque 3y agoAnd give up that sweet, sweet enterprise market segmentation? I wish they would.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoFramework has no enterprise products other than BYOD and AMD already did the work.
- ianlevesque 3y agoAMD was who I meant by they. Sibling comment clarifies that it’s only on Pro.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoAre we not deserving of pro-level parts? All just amateurs at HN? They seem to be a bit confused as to who their customer is.
- pella 3y agoFramework Team: "ECC parity functionality is not supported on the non-Pro series APUs (we are not offering Pro series). ( via https://community.frame.work/t/ecc-support/29096/142 https://community.frame.work/t/ecc-support/29096/142 )
- mixmastamyk 3y agoRead that already. It doesn’t really answer why we are we not deserving of pro parts?
- chpatrick 3y agoIsn't DDR5 RAM always somewhat ECC with AMD? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR5_SDRAM#Features https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR5_SDRAM#Features
- gpderetta 3y agoAs per Wikipedia article, it is not the same thing. The on-die ECC is needed on DDR5 to reach the reliability of previous non-ECC ram. Real ECC-DDR5 additionally exists for higher reliability.
- chpatrick 3y agoI think you're getting the reliability even from on-die ECC if there's memory corruption. What you're not getting is warnings that the RAM is bad and that you should replace it. So it's just as resilient as officially ECC ram but you don't know if error correction is happening or not.
- xxs 3y agoyou get no correction for transmission errors
- sva_ 3y agoThere are HP EliteBooks with a Ryzen Pro 7940hs that have SODIMM slots, so I think they should support ECC?
