Historically, Redump files were stored in uncompressed .BIN/.CUE or .ISO formats, which consumed massive amounts of storage space. The modern preservation ecosystem has embraced new compression formats that retain Redump-level accuracy:

allows remote dumping over a network — useful for sharing expensive Blu-ray drives.
