I'm downloading past OS X Installers from the Mac App Store for safekeeping and I keep ending up with different sizes for identical versions. They are all off by a few bytes. This is the first time I've noticed but I do have a fast connection and not a lot of traffic late at night. Why is this?
Also, Is there a way to checksum with Apple to check the integrity of the file? I don't see a hash posted anywhere. (I'm fairly new to this stuff though so please throughly explain any procedures.)
I've attached a screenshot of El Capitan and Yosemite Installers for comparison. 'Version' shows the identical versions and 'Size' shows the size differences:
