I'm replacing a data drive for which the files are still accessible. After copying the data while retaining the same directory structure, I was advised to run a Snapraid check on the replacement drive only. How long Snapraid check take, on average in comparison to Snapraid scrub on the same amount of data?

To restart from scratch, delete all Snapraid.content files (don't forget any! Check your snapraid.conf for all locations of them), format your parity drive(s) then sync. That's starting over from scratch. Refrain from making changes while doing Syncs and scrubs. Perhaps disable automation tools (if you are using them) to prevent SnapRAID from running without your supervision. Make it good practice to do a sync after adding and especially deleting files. Depending on the size of your array, this initial...
