## What is Bit Rot protection?

Bit Rot, also known as data rot or silent data corruption is a data loss issue faced by disk drives today. Data on the drive may silently get corrupted without signaling an error has occurred, making bit rot more dangerous than a permanent hard drive failure.

        PacDataInputStream pdis = createInputStream(data);
        Date date = pdis.readFiletime();
        assertNotNull(date);
        // Allow for a small difference due to precision loss
        assertEquals(time / 1000, date.getTime() / 1000);

        // Test with null date (0x7fffffff ffffffff)

        DirectoryCacheEntry entry = directoryLeaseManager.getCacheEntry(directoryPath);
        entry.updateChild("file1.txt", 1024L, 1000L, false, 0x20, 500L, 800L);
        entry.markComplete();

        // Break lease with loss of read cache
        int newState = Smb2LeaseState.SMB2_LEASE_HANDLE_CACHING; // Lost read cache
        directoryLeaseManager.handleDirectoryLeaseBreak(leaseKey, newState);

        // Cache should be invalidated
