> DDR5 SO-DIMMs are not compatible with DDR4 SO-DIMM slots—just something I learned on this project... I knew full-size DIMMs were incompatible due to the extra on-stick ECC circuit on DDR5 RAM, I just didn't know the same applied to SO-DIMMs. Obvious in hindsight, but something to keep in mind.

Umm... what?

DDR 4 and 5 are incompatible just because of the ecc?

You could desolder the ecc chip off a ddr 5 stick and then just plug it into a ddr 4 slot?

Is an Intel N100 or N150 a better value than a Raspberry Pi?
