that's good. i suggest you do so from time to time with your remote backups as well. personally my backups always run a verify after, as my backup sets are pretty small.

better find out what the actual file size limit is you can upload on Strato 
HiDrive. this sounds like it might be well below 2GB, the value i found when 
searching quickly. maybe create some test files with dd (e.g. 500MB, 1GB, 1.5GB 
...) and try uploading them with e.g. rcopy or some other webdav backend?

joyous new year everyone.. sunny regards ede
