This is where it comes in especially handy, because if you lost the data on your NAS (hardware failure, ransomware or just because you accidentally deleted it) how and when did you last verify your backup? From Windows the data gets pushed to a rpi4 for serving as well as an offline backup, which I can also run the hashing process against. The process I described (hashing) is similar in nature to a scrub, but because I wanted my master collection on Windows my options were limited. This assumes that you push the files directly to the NAS once they've been tagged and verfified. If that setup also includes redundancy then you shouldn't need to rely on a backup either. My next question question may exemplify this: would RAID Scrubbing do something similar?If you're using a filesystem like ZFS or BTRFS or have a correctly configured RAID setup that allows for scheduled scrubbing then they should notify you of any data corruption problems. That is exactly what I am looking for, but it is probably a little out of my depth.
