If you are using ECC, and your hardware and software support it, you
should see errors in your syslogs if ECC is having trouble.

Anyway, the whole point of ECC is to prevent bad data from getting
through, so I doubt very much that's the problem.  If you're using an
x86 architecture, you can try memtest86:  http://www.memtest86.com/
