Data Verification
=================
To prevent the upload of corrupted data to the repository, restic verifies that files can
be decoded and contain the correct data beforehand. This increases the CPU usage during
backups. If necessary, you can disable this verification using the option ``--no-extra-verify``.

``restic check --read-data``. Otherwise, data corruption due to hardware issues or software
bugs might go unnoticed.
