There are several hashes:
1. The file hash, its the "id" of the file, its the sha1 what you get when you search files.
2. Tiger Tree Hash. For detecting errornous data and localize where in the file. The aim is to minimize the amout of data for retransmitting when a part of the file is damaged/wrong.
