Hi, Engineers, I am interesting in E5V5 WS motherboard,  http://www.asrock.com.tw/mb/Intel/E3V5%20WS/index.us.asp the memory device list, I think NO ECC memory modules inside, is it true????? which ECC memory module this motherboard could support???? and inside the User Manual, I don't look up any information about ECC memory settings. can you update these informations?? thanks.... I am a local user from Taiwan.

From the specifications of the E3V5 WS board:

ECC memory modules are supported with Intel^® E3/Core??i3/Pentium^®/Celeron^® CPU only. With Intel^® Core??i7/i5 CPU, ECC function is not supported.

The E3 processors are Xeon models. ECC memory support is determined by the processor model being used. Intel Skylake and Kabylake Core i5 and i7 processors do not support ECC memory.

ECC memory works on the memory module itself, a built in function. It does not need to be enabled, so there may not be and UEFI/BIOS settings related to ECC. It's also difficult to know or verify that it is working, just like any of the many types of error correction features in hardware from networking chips to storage drives.

Sorry, but I don't have any information about which ECC memory models are supported. Any ECC type memory you can find must be compatible with Intel Xeon E3 processors.
