Downloaded packages are still in your cache and won't need to be downloaded again on your next -Syu unless they're already corrupted;
Trying to run pacman -Syyu again after downloading the packages does not upgrade the packages and give some message about packages being corrupted.
blindly running -Scc you're doing exactly the thing you're trying to avoid. (The best thing you can do to save data is ceasing to unnecessarily pass -y twice every time you upgrade.)
I tried to upgrade without running pacman -Scc first but I still get the same message about packages being corrupted. Please let me know if I am missing something. -- Lakshay
