Error correcting ram. Expensive but your ram will never go bad
ECC is error checking, there is an extra chip on the ram that does this and it's only really useful for server machines. Also ECC runs slower. Non-ECC has better performance and is used in most desktop PCs. There is a lot more to it, but this should give you the answer you need. For more info just type ECC vs. Non-ECC into any search.
8 MB to 2 GB of RAM depending on factors such as non-ECC and ECC technology.
NO, Only FB-DIMM can be used \
Yes, but take care to use non-ecc modules.
This is fully buffered RAM for servers as it is ECC Registered! It is also an FB DIM so will not fit in standard 240pin slots. An example of servers that use this are: HP Proliant DL360 G5 HP Proliant DL380 G5 Dell Poweredge 1950 Dell Poweredge 2900 Dell Poweredge 2950
The PC2-5300U is non-ECC Unbuffered RAM, which is the most common type of RAM that does not check for errors. The PC2-5300E RAM is ECC RAM or error correcting. The two will not work together. ECC RAM will only work in motherboards that support it. The E and U at the end of the names indicate the ECC and Unbuffered status Insert mode . The question was about 5300P, not 5300U memory. The 5300P memory is registered with Parity whereas 5300E is unbuffered. That means there is no buffer (or register) which holds the data temporarily to additionally help with data integrity.
ECC cost more but is more reliable than non-ECC memory. TRUE
Unplug the ECC fuse. If the fuse does not blow, then hook up the ECC. If the fuse blows then the ECC will need to be replaced.
buffered ram is ram that buffers data before it fully excepts it. its like the same as ecc error correcting code. buffered is better than unbuffered as long as your mother board takes it. you have to check your ram you have now and see if it has it. but be careful of static, it can killl your memory chips and boards.
ECC - eikaiwa - was created in 1962.
The abbreviation for the Book of Ecclesiastes is Ecc.
