Which hashing algorithm is best to check file duplicity?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I want to store the file's hash to the database, so I can check next time to see if that file was already uploaded (even if it was renamed).

What would be the best (= fastest + small chance of collision) algorithm in this case?

Is crc32 a good choice?

Thank you in advance,
Martin
