I suggest calculating a checksum file from your active files. Then you don’t 
have to read the files over and over for each backup iteration you compare 
it against.

This. No need to check everything you ever stored. Just the most recent 
stuff, or at maximum, since you got the new PC.

I aqcuired the habit of writing checksum files in all my media directories 
such as music albums, tv series and such, whenever I create one such 
directory. That way even years later I can still check whether the files are 
intact. I actually experienced broken music files from time to time (mostly 
on the MicroSD card in my tablet). So with checksum files, I can verify which 
file is bad and which (on another machine) is still good.
