Hello friends,

I'm trying to work with the hardware I have - sadly all consumer stuff that doesn't support ECC RAM.

However I understand there are other means of trying to detect and correct errors, like the data integrity features of the Btrfs filesystem.

I'm wondering how far Btrfs can go in terms of detecting & correcting errors, as well as wondering if there are any other solutions within RAID software, etc.
