There's a commercial variant that has an option to enable error
injection mode but on the two computers I've tried it, the manufacturer
has conveniently disabled that.

The only remaining way for consumers to see ECC in action is apparently
to undervolt the RAM to force errors. Assuming such a setting is
available. And seems like lots of work for minimal gain.
