Please, let me know if you find my comments confusing and I am happy to jump on a call to show you what I mean.

| Since backups are kept for a long time, the longevity of archival storage should be considered as part of backup planning. | ||

I don't think we need this section. As I said, all these performance considerations are explained here https://neo4j.com/docs/operations-manual/4.4/backup-restore/online-backup/#online-backup-resources. The planning talks about the different options available. When they choose which one they want to use, they can read about its pros and cons on their specific page.

I think we can add a link to this page modules/ROOT/pages/tools/neo4j-admin/consistency-checker.adoc after this sentence or as part of it:
"Alternatively, you can decouple the backup operation from the consistency check (using the neo4j-admin backup option --check-consistency=false) and schedule that part of the workflow to happen at a later point in time, on a dedicated machine."
| The `neo4j-admin` tool is located in the `bin` directory. | ||
| If checking the consistency of a database, note that it has to be stopped first or else the consistency check will result in an error. | ||

This is not true for this page. This page is about how to check the consistency of a database or a backup manually.

| In case you want to skip the check, with the option to run it manually at some other time, refer to the xref:backup-restore/online-backup.adoc#online-backup-resources[ |

I think this is confusing. This page is about a manual check, they don't want to skip it. They've already skipped it when they were doing the backup. Now they want to run the check.
