DIMMs intended to be used in servers must be extremely reliable and use an error-checking technology called ____.
A)CRC
B)ECC
C)AES
D)DPD

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ECC (Error-Correcting Code) is the error-checking technology used in DIMMs intended for servers. This technology detects and corrects single-bit errors, which is crucial for maintaining data integrity and system stability in mission-critical server environments. CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) is a simpler error-checking mechanism that detects errors but does not correct them. AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a symmetric encryption algorithm used to secure data, and DPD (Dynamic Power Dissipation) is a power management technique that adjusts power consumption based on workload. Neither AES nor DPD are related to DIMM reliability or error checking.
