It can be far more than "a few extra bucks." It's not just buying more expensive ram, but you need a compatible motherboard and processor as well.
It can be. It doesn't have to be. If ECC is too expensive I recommend avoiding ZFS.
Like ECC there's little to no benefit for the average user to use ZFS.
I agree. I didn't realize we were talking about average users. I thought we were talking about people building NAS.
I'm talking about the average person building a media server to cut out monthly streaming or cable costs. They don't need or even know ZFS.
That's why I agreed with you. :P
