RAR file provides a convenient way to store and transfer the data in a compressed form created on the WinRAR application. It facilitates you to compress and send multiple files in a single file making it quite easier to send. Besides, a compressed RAR archive holding data can reduce the disk space and provides high security. At certain times, RAR archives are split into small files called volumes named multi-volume/multi–part RAR files. Usually, the multipart RAR files are saved with .part1.rar, .part2.rar… or .rar, .r00, .r01 until the last file. Moreover, WinRAR is the most commonly used application to create/extract files in multipart RAR files. This feature enables you to save similar files together making the RAR compression convenient.
Multipart RAR files follow the AES encryption algorithm for data security and enable a few recovery records for repairing RAR files in case of the physical damage. However, these multivolume RAR files can get severely corrupt due to various known or unknown factors. Therewith, you won't be able to open the WinRAR files upon encountering damages to the RAR archives.
