Hi everyone
If I use a program to create md5 checksums for my master copy's of my files before I back them up and then scan the backups of my files periodically with the same md5 checksums
1) this ensures that the copy's are identical ?
2) would me scanning the backups md5 compared to the originals md5 tell me if a file had become damaged or corrupted
Thanks
