[Allow parity check pause time]

Sometimes when running a scheduled parity check I don't get enough throughput from the system for other operations and so I need to pause it. The problem is sometimes I forget to unpause the check to allow it to continue. It's be great if the pause function had a little drop down next to it that allowed one to 'Pause for Y hours' 2,4,8,12,24,48 or maybe X to set a custom value.

Ah Great.

Thanks everyone for your insight.

Good point, they were a group of metadata files that 'corrupted'.

I supposed it's possible they were updated from somewhere all on the same drive between the time the checksum and checks were made.

That would explain that.

Understood-

This was the first time I had seen this though, so I wasn't sure if I had more to concern myself with.

 

Thank you

I'm running Dynamix File Integrity and for the first time have some bitrot corruption on one of my drives.

 

What's protocol when this happens?

Can I replace the drive with a larger drive, format the removed drive to reset the sectors, and use it to upgrade another drive

or is it a sign of drive failure that's just going to get worse and I should put it out to pasture?
