Assuming this is about modern server RAM in well-cooled servers: hm, that's an expensive stance to take. But OK, your time might be worth more than RAM.
Assuming this about any other kind of memory, be it flash mass media, hard drives, optical media or tape: you're nowhere close to guessing how deep ECC needs to go to make any of these technologies usable at all.
