FWIW, given the price and amount of DRAM used I think it makes no sense to build computers equipped with a DRAM subsystem without ECC nowadays.
Well the HiFive Unmatched board looks like it has a DRAM chip for ECC, but whether this is activated is not known...
I don't think so. According to documentation and visual inspection of the board it has eight 2Gx8 DRAM chips. For ECC it would have to have nine 2Gx8 chips.
