Answer 1

I think you should use a byte array instead. For comparison you can use some method like this:

static bool CompareRange(byte[] a, byte[] b, int index, int count)
{
    bool res = true;
    for(int i = index; i < index + count; i++)
    {
        res &= a[i] == b[i];
    }
    return res;
}
