Now the fun part: I would like the files on the backup flash drive to be compressed. Do I lose my file comparison feature?
Can I do this?
I don't think rsync can peer into compressed archives for file comparison, and a quick search in the manual didn't yield anything for such a purpose with the search terms that I came up with. One other option would be to put btrfs on the flash drive, and then enable compression on the filesystem.
I concur, and can add that btrfs compression on flash is generally much faster than uncompressed for a linux system, but not for other use cases such as internally compressed netcdf4 files.
