MirroringThe BIOS divides the system memory in half and retains two copies of all data in the memory. It prevents a system crash when uncorrectable errors occur. In seldom cases in which uncorrectable errors occur, data cannot be collected from the first copy, the data is immediately called from the second copy. At the same time, the memory error is reported to the administrator.

SparingThe BIOS uses a memory rank as a reserve for the case that too many correctable errors occur in another memory rank. Before some uncorrectable error occurs, the content of this memory rank is routed back into the sparing rank. The potentially defective memory rank is not used anymore. This procedure is executed while working. At the same time, the memory error is reported to the administrator.
