You are a really confusing person. The context here is that I implemented improvements to my backup process that includes verifying the content of my backups.

Then I explicitly restated that and added that I also have two copies locally and an off-site copy. So why did you think you needed to type 7 paragraphs explaining to me why I should do... All the things I said I am doing? Are you truly worried I spent several weekends of my life to create a redundant backup system, but I'm doing it for the wrong reasons? I have demonstrated that I understand all of this. It's pretty weird that you (and a couple others) slide into the thread to insist I haven't considered everything, all of you insisting that unless I explicitly state otherwise, whatever system I have should be treated as though huge consequences are likely if even a slight imperfection in the system exists. I would honestly be surprised if even most medium sized companies have taken as much care in implementing a backup system as I have lol.
