MD5 is probably the best choice if you intend to do a fast check on whether a file was transferred free of errors or accidental modification.

Otherwise, as stated in all previous answers, use SHA-2.

Is calculating an MD5 hash less CPU intensive than SHA family functions?

Reasons:
  • Low length (0.5):
  • No code block (0.5):
  • Ends in question mark (2):
  • High reputation (-1):
