| 1 | Hello list, |
| 2 | |
| 3 | I have an external USB-3 drive with various system backups. There are 350 .tar |
| 4 | files (not .tar.gz etc.), amounting to 2.5TB. I was sure I wouldn't need to |
| 5 | compress them, so I didn't, but now I think I'm going to have to. Is there a |
| 6 | reasonably efficient way to do this? I have 500GB spare space on /dev/sda, and |
| 7 | the machine runs constantly. |
