RAM stress test, not error test.

Isn't that the point though? To make sure it's stable in the OS?

no, RAM will be unstable outside the OS too

doing it inside the OS could potentially:

• fuck with the system files
• fuck with the drive partition
• fuck with other files

why!?

I could understand this as a stress test.  I use a Passmark tool called Burn-In-Test and set it to run the CPU, RAM (system and video), GPU and HDD at 100% in order to stress the system for instability.  I could see this serving a similar purpose, albeit a redundant one for me.
