You do NOT need ECC RAM for a Microserver Gen7 (N54L, N40L, N36L). And it costs about double. Are you all incapable of finding the answer somewhere vaguely definitive?

Non-ECC RAM is compatible .. Does not support registered (buffered) modules.
[Edit: admittedly, you need ECC if you are supplementing the supplied ECC 2GB with a second stick]
[Edit 2: I wrote half that page because I found out the hard way, and also bought non-ECC for my Gen 8, which does need ECC]

Jokes aside, do I accept the measly 2g RAM? Or is there a way around it? Should I bin it and buy a working NAS?
