Rclone check amount is different from files transferred amount

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm trying to run rclone copy to a new, empty hard drive. It said that it had transferred 9,220 files. However, my Mac had to restart due to some error. When I ran the command again and it did a check, it said 10,649 files had been checked. That's a deficit of 1,429 files. In the first transfer it also said that 1.268 TB / 2.493 TB transferred, but this new transfer I'm doing only says there are 540.866 GB left to transfer. (However, I know that this total might change.) Should I be worried that those 1,429 files didn't copy over? I usually run the command over again maybe twice to double check this, but are there flags I should be using to make absolutely sure? I don't want to have to go through the files on the two drives and compare them.

Sorry if this is a simple question. Thanks!

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

rclone v1.64.2
- os/version: darwin 13.2.1 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 22.3.0 (arm64)
- os/type: darwin
- os/arch: arm64 (ARMv8 compatible)
- go/version: go1.21.3
- go/linking: dynamic
- go/tags: cmount

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Not using any for this particular command.

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

rclone copy '/Volumes/Duzzin/JELLYFIN-BACKUP' '/Volumes/WD My Book/JELLYFIN-WDMYBOOK' --transfers=8 --log-file '/Volumes/WD My Book/rclone_log.txt' -vv -P

Please run 'rclone config redacted' and share the full output. If you get command not found, please make sure to update rclone.

[gdrive-shared]
type = drive
client_id = XXX
client_secret = XXX
scope = drive
token = XXX
team_drive = 

A log from the command that you were trying to run with the -vv flag

Log here. I had to cut out a lot of it because it was very long but it's all the same thing.

welcome to the forum,

that should work fine.

can run rclone check as it will use compare using checksums.

Thank you for your quick reply. I will do the rclone copy command once or twice after this transfer is done and then do the rclone check command. Hopefully I find no differences. Thanks!
