 AN!Wiki :: ECC

Error correcting code is a mechanism for transmitting additional, redundant data that allows for the detection of errors. In most cases, ECC allows the automatic correction of single-byte errors without requiring the corrupted data being retransmitted.

It is often found in enterprise-grade memory, often referred to as "ECC RAM". The same technology is used in many different system components, like storage systems.

 

Any questions, feedback, advice, complaints or meanderings are welcome.
