<p>We are setting up automated fixity checking using Heratio's preservation plugin. The documentation suggests monthly checks, but with 15TB of data, each run takes about 18 hours.</p><p>What schedule are others using? Is quarterly sufficient for most collections, or should high-value collections be checked more frequently?</p>
