The file server is a good halfway measure given it's the biggest single
point of failure. If a client experiences memory failure then only
their data is corrupted. If the server experiences memory failure then
all the clients have potential issues.

I imagine the point at which ECC memory starts making sense depends
entirely on your workload and the number of clients.
