If I was making a backup, I would tar and encrypt as explained before
and then RAR the files to make the files sizes easier to deal with.
Just a thought.
After encryption, it isn't going to compress.

Nope not much if any... but rar will chunk it into 650 meg or whatever size
Not any. In fact, it will grow.
chunks that are desired....
So will split, which is a standard distribution, whereas rar is
not. If you want to be able to verify with some sort of check
sum, then md5sum or sha1 are superior for that, and are also
standard distribution.
Use the right tool for the job.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
