I use LZO to backup my jpeg images, that are stored on SSDs. I used to 
use gzip2 for speed, and in the hopes it wouldn't damage the images as 
much as higher levels of compression might.

Now, I hope LZO doesnt damage them, and I consider restoring them from 
backup is not ideal, but better than not having them.

Would it be better to create a job that uses no compression for .jpg files?


Currently:

FileSet {
     Enable VSS = yes
     Include {
     Options {
     ...
        }
     Options {
     compression = LZO
     signature = SHA1
     }
     File = "C:/"
     File = "D:/"
     File = "F:/"
     }
}
