I’ve got backup anxiety... and I don’t even hoard that much data 💀

Been reading threads like this one and realizing how many of us don’t actually test our backups unless we’ve already lost data once.

How are you validating restores? Do you just run SMART? Checksum scan?

What gives you actual peace of mind, not just “green checkmark = success”?
