AMD confirms that Ryzen supports ECC memory
AMD confirms that Ryzen support ECC memory
ÂECC is not disabled. It works, but not validated for our consumer client platform.ÂValidated means run it through server/workstation grade testing. For the first Ryzen processors, focused on the prosumer/gaming market, this feature is enabled and working but not validated by AMD. You should not have issues creating a whitebox homelab or NAS with ECC memory enabled.Âyes, if you enable ECC support in the BIOS so check with the MB feature list before you buy.Â
 Â
Â
AMD supporting ECC memory on their desktop Ryzen platforms will make them the CPU maker of choice when home users create their own workstations, FreeNAS file servers and other system types that can benefit from ECC memory.
Right now support for ECC memory is heavily restricted on Intel platforms, making ECC memory support a nice boost for AMD’s Ryzen CPU architecture and the easy choice for those that want to create a home ZFS server or NAS.Â
