* Use a file system with strong data checks and repairability, basically meaning, ZFS with a sufficient redundant set up. "zpool scrub" can do wonders, and you can guarantee backups to a different pool are identical to the source.
- Fnoord 8y agoIn the scene they've used SFV (CRC32) for ages. It works very well and quick except it isn't useful against tampering. PAR2 provides additional parity, and it also useful if for Usenet. You can also use RAID. For example, Synology NAS easily allow RAID1 plus btrfs.
