 **"ECC RAM is required to run ZFS".**\\
-As is the case with most file server and NAS installations, ECC is desirable but not required.  ECC is designed to correct randomly "flipped bits" in RAM, notionally caused by cosmic rays.  While flipped RAM bits could cause an errored disk write, a more likely outcome would be a kernel or application error.  Data stored and checksummed, on a spinning hard drive or an SSD, is another matter altogether.  Correcting storage media errors is a task that ZFS handles well.\\
