A 'rezip' script that converts your .gz files to .bz2 for better compression and maybe better error recovery -- at a substantial cost in compression time, of course. Rezip...
Uses a simple text file of paths and filenames for input -- so you can save the results of "find" to a file, run rezip, and the files will be re-compressed one at a time, with a running log and no user intervention (as long as there's free space on the destination drive.) Example:
$ find /mnt/bkps -name *.gz > ~/rezipp-files.txt && rezip
