The calculated checksum is then compared against the verified checksums stored in a database, such as the No-Intro DAT-o-Matic . The No-Intro database includes checksums for every entry in their collection, providing a definitive reference for what an original, unmodified file should look like.

Verified archives solve these problems by providing matching checksums (e.g., SHA-256) and metadata records.

Even with verified archives, configuration errors can occur.
