- bombcar 3y agoNot ... really? https://www.klennet.com/notes/2022-11-25-zfs-and-ecc-rant.aspx https://www.klennet.com/notes/2022-11-25-zfs-and-ecc-rant.as... is a pretty good overview. ECC is "nice to have if you can get it cheap enough" but it is not a ride or die.
- eisa01 3y ago> Whatever method you use to prevent tampering with your backups (e.g., when a cryptovirus silently corrupts your data) should catch the RAM problem too. If it does not, you need to change the method rather than rely on ECC RAM. > If your backup and recovery strategy relies on ZFS using ECC RAM, you should rework your backup strategy. After you do not need ECC RAM, you can buy it as a matter of convenience to save time troubleshooting and/or restoring from the backup. What's the solution the article alludes to?
