why wait a few days? you could run rsync again immediately and you can
look for errors.

wes,

Two reasons:

1) I'm waiting for the weekend to replace the desktop's internal hard drive.
        I'll run rsync then to update what changed from today.

2) The list of copied files scrolls by very quickly. Even if I sat her
        watching I'd probably not see an error message and wouldn't know how
        to stop the process to read it.

3) The three partitions duplicated contain 39G, 145G, and 171G. The first
one took 21 minutes; I didn't time the others but they were much longer.

Best regards,

Rich
