First, why is every post on this forum -1? Somebody must be holding a grudge.
Second: it doesn't matter. ECC just prevents bit flips in RAM, once data leaves a system it's irrelevant whether it had ECC or not.
I've been running servers of various kinds for decades. There is a difference between running servers on hardware with ECC vs none, but it's not a big deal. Unless you're running, like, banking software or something where accuracy or uptime is critical...I wouldn't sweat it. You may just have to reboot cuz of a kernel panic once or twice a year.
