Regarding the filesystem solution, the dump is currently written to a HP
RAID 10 array with an NTFS partition. What filesystems / raid arrays have
this ability?
If you can't trust your RAID 10 (1 meaning mirrored) to
actually store what you told it to you've got problems beyond
somehow verifying a pg_dump.

I am told RAID can only protect you against disk failure. File writes to
one or more of the disks in an array are not typically compared so a
RAID array carrys on until the disk failure, or error count get to a
certain level. So RAID does not fully protect you from data corruption.
So you can't trust RAID!
