External Email - Use Caution

Dear all,

This is just to close up this question. After some correspondence with the lab's members, I was informed that due to the imaging nature of the software ECC is not "needed" but advisable. The lab's computers are all equipped with ECC memory. However, a double run of an analysis is deemed adequate to over come the rare case of any such errors, even when non-ECC is used.

I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this questions with their comments as well as the lab's members that assisted me with this issue.

Best Regards, Sotiris Michos
