Hi so jumping ship from truenas to unraid as i only store files/photos and plex media. so i have trunas running on an old amd A10 6700 set up so decided as i have a ryzen 5 2600 going spare to do a new build withy this, so looking for some help on a board that i can use this with that also supports and uses ecc ram. Any help with this ?
Thanks

I have an ASRock B450M Pro4 which supports ECC RAM. Another bonus is that it boots without a GPU installed with a Ryzen 5 1600AF.

Hi so it supports ecc ram but does it run ecc ram or just run it as standard ram ?
Thanks

Unraid reports "16 GIB Multi-bit ECC" so it looks to be working correctly.

I have an AsRock X470 Master Sli that ECC works on as well (better PCIE layout for me than a B450)
