Some ECC-enabled boards and processors are able to support unbuffered (unregistered) ECC, but will also work with non-ECC memory; system firmware enables ECC functionality if ECC memory is installed. ECC may lower memory performance by around 2–3 percent on some systems, depending on the application and implementation, due to the additional ...
The normal memory reads issued by the CPU or DMA devices are checked for ECC errors, but due to data locality reasons they can be confined to a small range of addresses and keeping other memory locations untouched for a very long time. These locations can become vulnerable to more than one soft error, while scrubbing ensures the checking of the ...
As with parity RAM, additional information needs to be stored and more processing needs to be done, making ECC RAM more expensive and a little slower than non-parity and logic parity RAM. This type of ECC memory is especially useful for any application where reliability or uptime is a concern: failing bits in a memory word are detected and ...
There is much confusion between registered and ECC memory; it is widely thought that ECC memory (which may or may not be registered) will not work at all in a motherboard without ECC support, not even without providing the ECC functionality, although the compatibility issues actually arise when trying to use registered memory (which often ...

An equivalent system from Sun Microsystems is called Extended ECC, while equivalent systems from HP are called Advanced ECC [3] and Chipspare. A similar system from Intel, called Lockstep memory, provides double-device data correction (DDDC) functionality. [4]
The three-part docuseries, Sin City Gigolos: A Murder in Las Vegas, premiering March 4 on Paramount+, is tasked with "documenting a vicious death while weaving together revealing scenes and ...
A memory rank is a set of DRAM chips connected to the same chip select, which are therefore accessed simultaneously. In practice all DRAM chips share all of the other command and control signals, and only the chip select pins for each rank are separate (the data pins are shared across ranks).
