It's not an enterprise environnement, i will just store movies, tons of it. Even for personnal datas like photos and stuff, never saw a simple user using ecc ram, especially in the windows world of gaming. It would be safer, but not worth the money.
Driver compatibility issues, i'm currently running 4.2.5 and i already returned 3 cards who didn't have a compatible driver (tried for one week to run the last one with the help of highpoint support but i returned it after, didn't want to take the chance to loose my money since the allowed delay to return an item is not that long). I want to run 6drives (3To each) in raid 6. What do you mean by hotplug backplane? I googled it but it is not very clear to me. Because i do, if i understand what i read correctly hardware raid is limited by the card components when my zfs raid will be limited by my cpu and ram. I will not encrypt the data though, too much load on the cpu. 2016-02-02 17:13 GMT+01:00 Gordon Messmer <gordon.mess...@gmail.com>: > On 02/02/2016 02:17 AM, thibaut noah wrote: > >> This article seems to disagree with you : >> http://jrs-s.net/2015/02/03/will-zfs-and-non-ecc-ram-kill-your-data/ >> > > No, it doesn't.
