You can use Teracopy to copy folders / files with verification after copy. It produces checksums of the source and destination files that can optionally get saved to disk. You can also use Teracopy to validate these saved checksums. Another (freeware) utility that you can use to produce / verify checksums on individual folders / files is Md5Checker.

Test everything by eliminating all the possible reasons. First, test SD card with something like h2testw program without the adapter. Second, test CF-SD adapter with the same card via CF card reader. Third, sync only small portion of tracks, like 50-100, and check if sync was successful. Fourth, select one of the tracks in iPod_Control\Music hidden folder on iPod and compare it to the original in your library with... Source: over 1 year ago

If you've done everything according to the wiki (bios file names are case sensitive and should only need to go inside the \BIOS\ folder), take a look at the official core documentation here you can find the checksum values for the correct Bios and use an app like MD5Checker to verify.

I’m sure there are dozen more of apps but some of the few I use: Md5Checker, Teracopy (which also copies with verification) and checkpoint. Source: about 2 years ago

Here is possible that your download was corrupted. Download Md5Checker from http://getmd5checker.com/. Check iso file with it. Md5 checksum should be: c64cdf16381323980ec6a3f37b8b8087. If different you have bad file. If is the same then boot in windows safe mode + disable antivirus (defender) + run setup as admin. Source: over 2 years ago

Assuming two systems use flash storage, network bandwidth is identical and it is configured the same way, there should be an issue within the PC, either system or storage drive. Check the system logs for errors and warning events related to data transfer from/to NAS. Try to benchmark the PCs' disks using fio to confirm they have similar performance. https://github.com/axboe/fio. Source: 12 months ago

Not specifically addressing your question, but when you get to the point of wanting to start doing some experiments you may find that 'fio' [1] is very handy. [1] https://github.com/axboe/fio. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

The dd is not a good benchmarking tool, you should use something like fio and probably tune it to use the ioengine most similar to your use case (eg. a database server will probably use some async IO interface). In your first example (with bs=1G) probably something (the guest OS, the qemu/kvm or the host OS) have split into smaller chunks anyway. Source: about 1 year ago

All linux tests are run with fio 3.32 (github) with future commit 03900b0bf8af625bb43b10f0627b3c5947c3ff79 manually applied. Source: over 1 year ago

Agree, I used flex/yacc to add an arithmetic expression evaluator to fio a few years back to allow simple math with some units in fio's job files, and for stuff like that, they're fine, but I wouldn't want to use them for a real language, the error handling is kind of a nightmare.
