Update translations (Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Turkish).This is acceptable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much more harder for an attacker to gain access to the encrypted data.

This enhanced security adds some delay only to the opening of encrypted partitions without any performance impact to the application use phase. And for standard containers and other partitions, TrueCrypt uses at most 2000 iterations but VeraCrypt uses 655331 for RIPEMD100 iterations for SHA-2 and Whirlpool. For example, when the system partition is encrypted, TrueCrypt uses PBKDF2-RIPEMD160 with 1000 iterations whereas in VeraCrypt we use 327661. VeraCrypt adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. Provides plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password: Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden operating system.Encryption can be hardware-accelerated on modern processors.Parallelization and pipelining allow data to be read and written as fast as if the drive was not encrypted.Encryption is automatic, real-time(on-the-fly) and transparent.Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.VeraCrypt also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. p seems to be a nice option because it displays how many items have been checked so far.VeraCrypt adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. I added -check-data-csum, because without it, it only checked the disk for the metadata checksum, not the actual files, so I had to run the test again (doing all the previous checks again). The comment I used was sudo btrfs -force -check-data-csum -p /dev/mapper/veracrypt1. I am adding the following for future people who encounter the same problem. PS: Thanks to the accepted answer, I got the correct device name. I opened a Terminal and tried to execute btrfs check but "sudo btrfs check (the device name)" failed with "no valid btrfs found on /dev/sdd" (probably because the whole disk is encrypted") and "sudo btrfs check (the decrypted directory)" failed with "not a regular file or block device". But it showed an "fsck" window saying "If you wish to check the consistency of a BTRFS filesystem or repair a damaged filesystem, see btrfs(8) subcommand 'check'" and exited. Then, I tried to use the "Check filesystem" context menu on the volume of the VeraCrypt. And when I ran it, it asked for read-only something, and that made me think that it may destruct existing files, so I cancelled it. Here are the things I have tried on my own:įirst, the web search result said badblocks but other result said that it is an obsolete tool now. The partition I stored the files is using Btrfs. The disk (not by partition-level, but the whole disk itself) is encrypted using VeraCrypt. The disk is a typical USB external drive. I want to test if physical errors of the disk, of it that is not possible, file system errors of the disk.
