That's to say, There are Registered ,Registered ECC ,unbuffered and unbuffered ECC. You know, Registered RAM data width is x72 and ECC RAM data width is also x72. How about Registered ECC RAM?
Most Registered/Buffered memory DIMMs come with ECC as the standard. The width of 72 vs 64 is based on the parity bits for ECC vs non-ECC.
I haven't seen Buffered Non-Partiy or Buffered Non-ECC in a long time. You normally can only find that kind of memory in older architectures.

From a data critical point of view, why wouldn't you want ECC with buffering if you are looking at massive amounts of main memory storage over multiple DIMMs?
Just makes more sense to package them together.
BTW: Parity checking and ECC are also two different things. Parity would only tell you that there was a one bit error, where ECC will actually fix/correct one bit errors.

can i use a ddr2 pc4200 registred ECC 1g on my workstation xw-4200. i m bying 4 memory but not working when used in the station that not starting and give fail sonore.
it s one solution to use these memory modules pleaze.
