I did the math a while back for the percent chance of this kind of corruption happening on a per packet basis with a specific percent of corrupt packets. Unfortunately most operating systems don't report the fact that packets are coming in corrupt in a way that end users would see it. It's only visible to people that pay attention to their network interface packet counters. I guess I should look around for a comparison of different network file systems that do application level packet checksums. Another good reason why I use rsync+ssh tunnels for important file copies. -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60910 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
