Windows 10: Does Windows 10 Pro (Not for workstation) supports server board and ECC memory?

I got some ECC memory sticks from a friend that he said he won't use anymore, alongside with two E5-2690 v2 and a dual socket motherboard from Supermicro. I just want to know if Windows 10 Pro (Not for workstation) works with ECC memory and server board, I don't need full functionality but ECC.

Also I assume this is devices topic, please change if it's wrong.

PQI Announces Lineup of DDR3 Registered/ECC Server Memory Modules

Power Quotient International (PQI) has released a series of DDR3 server memory modules in response to the advent of cloud computing. DDR3 Registered/ECC server memory modules are powerful additions to PQI’s Power Memory product range and symbolize the technical strength and product integrity of PQI memory modules for enterprise applications. DDR3 Registered/ECC server memory modules continuously undergo complete, complex, and rigorous integrity tests to provide both stable and compatible memory solutions that increase performance and ensure the stability of servers and workstations under year-round, high-speed data processing conditions.

DDR3 Registered/ECC server memory modules consist of carefully selected, originally manufactured DRAM IC’s paired with PLL (Phase-Lock Loop) chips made by a well-known manufacturer, as well as high specification PCB’s, in order to achieve PQI’s main objective: high quality. In particular, the DDR3 1333’s 32GB/s (tri-channel mode) transmission bandwidth server memory module is capable of meeting the most demanding server environments and enhancing the overall performance of high-end computing systems.





Furthermore, to accommodate different usage needs, the DDR3 Registered/ECC server memory modules adopts both 128x8 and 256x8 BGA configurations and provides 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacity selections, each of which has enough power satisfy the needs of high capacity servers. PQI is fully committed to upholding the principle of quality first; in addition to stringent burn-in tests, its server memory modules have also been verified in various mainstream server platforms such as Intel, Tyan, and Supermicro to ensure superior stability and compatibility.

Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Pro Workstation?

I would say you most likely don't need (or could even really benefit at all from) the workstation edition. Workstations one is for super heavy workloads. Microsoft describes it like this in their announcement about it.

Windows 10 Pro for Workstations is a high-end edition of Windows 10 Pro, comes with unique support for server-grade PC hardware and is designed to meet demanding needs of mission critical and compute
intensive workloads.

Memory ID-ECC or non-ECC?


I ran it and got a "3", so it's non-ECC.

My workstation can take either ECC or non-, but not both at once. I think it came with ECC, but only 4GB worth.
