Actually I was wondering: DDR5 has built-in ECC. But that’s not the same as the 
server-grade stuff, because it all happens inside the module with no 
communication to the CPU or the OS. So what is the point of it if it still 
causes errors like in Dale’s case?

Maybe that it only catches 1-bit errors, but Dale has more broken bits?
