It depends on your BIOS/Firmware and the OS.

The first thing you should ensure is that you use Memory with ECC enabled.

In the system management interface, there should be some log showing you about ECC corrected errors (or similar) - if this number is greater than 0, your memory is defect.

Also, you could run tools like memtest86 - they find most memory errors which are not found by the POST.

Of course, checking the SMART data for the hard disks is on the list, too.

And I remember that some of the earlier SSDs shipped with borked firmware leading to data loss.

However, I'm not the specialist for finding hardware defects (our sysadmins take care for that), and this is not the best place to find answers for that subject.

Best regards

Markus Schaber
