I wasn't talking about dual channel, but something else. There are a number of ways to map linear memory space to multiple individual memory chips.

The recent Ukraine war shows that soldiers lifes are cheap - according to commanders. So many soldiers on both sides died because of really dumb commander decisions, missing kit, p…

This is for cheap tags. Nike can afford a $1 crypto tag.

If it's consistent and persistent, wouldn't that classify as broken hardware requiring device change? Even with 3 chips, if one is permanently wrong you are then left with only 2 w…

It would be easy for competition to reverse engineer the physical layout. I think it's "secret" because nobody really cares. Do you care for example how the CPU maps the linear mem…

Like all stress tests, linpack will find some errors, but not all. I had memory stability issues which would immediatly show under Prime95 (less than 1 minute) but pass hours of Li…

If you're not hard realtime 2 is enough, you just redo the computation.

They would compromise the systems by dumping nanobots into them which rewire the whole thing, not by breaking the encryption.

Many times you could also feel the hard disk vibrations through the desk.
