paritybyte's are not very common, but a paritybyte (PB) is the measurement after Terabyte (TB) 1000 TB = 1 PB, so this would be for very large servers.

ECC stands for "error correcting code". It is a way to check for accuracy by adding one bit of redundant data (or parity data) to the end of each byte. As an example, when the digits of a byte total an odd number, the parity bit will be a zero. When it is even, it will be a one. If the parity bits do not match their respective bytes, the data is known to be corrupted.
It's called a parity bit.
True
That's called a "parity violation", which indicates a bit error in the byte. That's the whole purpose of parity ... detecting bit errors, although in order to do it, you have to significantly increase the data load by adding an extra bit to every 7 or 8 bits in the end-user's business traffic.
for example: unsigned char attach (unsigned char byte, unsigned char bit) { unsigned char mybyte; mybyte = byte&0x7f; if (bit) mybyte |= 0x80; return mybyte; }
A ninth bit is added to each byte, and its value is set so that the number of 'ones' in the nine bits is always even. That's "even parity".
it is called even / odd parity check
In RAM, parity is a type of built-in error-checking system. After the 8 bits in a byte receive data, even parity works by adding to total number of 1s. If the number is odd, the parity bit is set to 1; if the number is even, the parity bit is set to 0. When the data is read back, the total is added up again and compared to the first total. If the parity bit is 1, the data is error-free, but if the total is odd and the parity is 0, the chip recognizes a problem and gets rid of the data. Odd parity works in the same fashion, just the other way around.
