 |
|
Hi All
I need to find out if I have ecc memory modules because I'm considering to run a database on this computer. I tried | Code: | hwinfo --memory
01: None 00.0: 10102 Main Memory
[Created at memory.59]
Unique ID: rdCR.CxwsZFjVASF
Hardware Class: memory
Model: "Main Memory"
Memory Range: 0x00000000-0x7ffeffff (rw)
Memory Size: 2 GB
Config Status: cfg=new, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown
|
but I think this output doesn't tell me anything about this particular type of information.
So, any suggestions what I should do to find this out (right now I cannot open the box, its up and running and working very hard!!)
Thnx
LuCa

| What board do you have? If that is a single 2GB module, it is ECC. |

| You can look at your board or modules to read the label. This is a dual Opteron board? The socket 940 Opteron boards take ECC memory. I thought that the MSI Rhapsody meant it would be ECC, and I googled the Supermicro H8DA8, and the results said ECC. |
