First of all, rsync is a complex copy command, so I suggest to read the man page, and test a lot before to start. Rsync can be intended like a client-server apps, so on one side you can start it as daemon. Configuring daemon is usefull to create some room in which you can push data (or pull) without go outside. Option to force checksum instead of date-time is -c also -I can work. Really I don't understand the difference, but I think there is :-) rsync is also used with ssh, but I never used it so I can't say if checksum is performed also if you use ssh without daemon on the other side.
