I am using MS Storage Explorer (version 1.7) to upload files to a blob container in my Azure storage account. As a test, I made two copies of a file, uploaded one as a block blob and one as an append blob.
Afterward, I checked properties on each file; the one I uploaded as block had the ContentMD5 property set, but the one I uploaded as append did not have the property set.
Is this expected behavior? I would like to have ContentMD5 automatically set, so I don't have to calculate it and set it myself. Where am I going wrong?
