I've read in numerous threads that it's important to use ECC RAM in a

My question is: is there any technical reason, in ZFS's design, that
makes it particularly important for ZFS to require ECC RAM?
I think, basically the idea is, that if you're going to use ZFS to protect your data from this sort of thing through the path to the stable storage, then it seems like a shame (or a waste?) not to equally protect the data both before it's given to ZFS for writing, and after ZFS reads it back and returns it to you.
