[QUOTE="rbpeirce, post: 1940506, member: 410088"] If I read this correctly you have to check the volumes and containers and disks in that order. He does say checking the container rechecks the volumes and may find errors the volume check missed. Bottom line is it appears just checking the container doesn't necessarily completely check the volumes. It is interesting that he goes bottom up and actually specifies that is the way to go. Also, I never thought about checking the disks. I suppose that might be important if you have several containers but I'm not sure about one. Still, it is fairly quick and only a minor inconvenience.
