I was importing a folder that contained all of the files that I want inside it (let's call that folder that contained all of these files "Import All") that had roughly 137GB of files from one HDD (~900GB) to another (~1.86TB) because that folder is still missing a lot of files that I want to download in it and the former HDD just wasn't that big to continue downloading to it.

I was importing from the first HDD to the other until I clicked on cancel because importing from one external HDD directly to another external HDD was just extremely slow for me, I then imported that folder to my desktop and then continued importing to the other HDD (now there are 2 "Import All" folders). Most of the files aren't that big, the import size is so big because that's how they collectively amount in their sizes because there are just so many files in it.

Is there a way to identify the files that were potentially damaged (like probably scanning all of the files that are inside the "Import All" folder after I merged the two "Import All" folders into one folder)? And how do I fix the damaged files in case there are?
