So I have a NAS where I put photos.
$ ls -l
total 161

Every couple of months, I back it up. I plug in my HDD into my machine, and rsync all the files from the NAS into the HDD.
rsync -av --delete "$nas" "$local_hdd"
But the issue is that some folders don't show up on the HDD. They exist, I can cd into them and ls the photos inside, but they don't show up on the parent directory.
$ ll

So what's happening? I worry rsync is fumbling something up, since the total amount of files in the HDD says 2748 and I definitely don't that many folders.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? Maybe after rsync I need to run some utility to fix the filesystem.
