Technical white paper | HP Z230 Workstation Architecture ECC Error Correcting Code (ECC) memory is supported on workstation Intel® Xeon® SKUs, thereby improving data integrity. If ECC memory is used in conjunction with a non-ECC processor sku, ECC protection is not available and the DIMMs will appear to the system as Non-ECC memory. Desktop PCs do not typically support ECC. 3 displays support The HP Z230 equipped with Xeon® processor E3-12x5v3 SKUs supports 3 digital display outputs.
