Haha, what, are they only checking the first and last bytes? That's like trying to catch a thief by just looking at their shoes!

I'm leaning towards 64 bytes, that seems like a reasonable compromise between performance and reliability.

Hmm, I was thinking it was 512 bytes to be on the safe side. Better to have a larger sample size for the CRC check.

I'm pretty sure it's 256 bytes, that's the standard CRC block size, right?

Exactly, it helps prevent re-indexing of the same file if it's rotated or renamed.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be C) 256. Can anyone explain why they think it's 512?

I agree with Emmanuel, because a larger sample size would be more accurate.
