What is the Hash option in Checkpoint used for?
When I download the checkpoint, there are different options for the hash. Is there any different impact?

Hey! The model you're downloading is the same - these are just different hashing implementations.
There are many different methods of hashing a file - Automatic1111's WebUI uses its own hash. Civitai also hashes uploaded models using SHA256 and CRC32. You're just seeing those different hash methods, but they relate to the same model.
You can also copy the hash from any model (any of the hash numbers!), paste it into the Search box, and you'll get that exact model. If multiple models appear - one of them is a duplicate/re-upload of an existing file, and you should let us know! :)
Does that help?
