• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

I run WHS 2011 with drive pool in a VM on a Win2k8 server. Would it be wise to run a weekly checksum on all file in my drivepool to check integrity? Brutalizer brought this up in another thread (here) so it got me thinking. How would I go about doing this. Would a program like MD5 File hasher be able to do a weekly check then compare?

If you really care about data integrity and cannot move to ZFS:
Use Windows with ReFS and enable checksums on data and metadata.

You need to update to Win 2012 or 8.1
