For a NAS it's very important because ECC allows write-back to your disks from cache in the event of a power failure. Without this, your data is at risk of being lost or RAID corrupting if you don't have battery backup and\or your battery backup fails during power outage.
I'm looking at building my own truenas server since my rack is only 22" depth, but I want a 12 bay hotswap array. Very challenging to find an matx board AND chassis that can fit the bill.
Yes, and it is difficult to find ECC going DIY. Because of this I am considering going with Synology
