While ECC memory is nice to have, potential data integrity issues can be mitigated against by using a file system with sufficient redundancy and checksum error correction like zfs or btrfs.
Just run a regular scrub for errors to be auto-corrected from the extra copies.
That would be the plan, the NAS with ECC would run zfs with weekly scrubs (4 to 6 drives)
Edit: now running ECC on devices with critical data or databases
