RAID doesn't provide data integrity even with ECC RAM.

It only provides redundancy (with some RAID levels).  Use ECC RAM and a
file system that does checksumming for data integrity --- might be a bit
difficult for swap, though.  Does swapping to partitions use
checksumming for data integrity?  If not, you can always swap to files.
