Thank you. I’ve been keeping an eye on the thread to see if any consensus emerges regarding any better understanding of how the corruption manifests itself. It appears there is a possibility that a portion could be zeroed out and then new data written over it, giving the impression that all is well, but where the file is obviously still corrupt. It seems the best method is to have a list of checksums from known good files, but that obviously requires previous action that may or may not have occurred (obviously, most people never anticipated this and thus have no such list).
It appears the issue arises more when a ZFS file system is being used in a primary nature; e.g., reading and writing to it directly as a part of some active operation. Are you using it as a backup/archive, or as a primary partition where your OS and applications are writing to it directly? If it’s the former, it would seem you’re much more unlikely to encounter the issue.

I was able to copy zipped 400GB zipped dump from the torrent, checksum it beforehand and after the move, no failures so far, at least at the beginning
