Redump

Unlike some formats that compress data, Redump sets prioritize keeping the original content, including subchannel data and system-specific partitions, even if it results in larger file sizes. The Redump Database

is a massive digital preservation project and community dedicated to creating a comprehensive, high-fidelity database of video games released on optical media. Unlike casual ROM-sharing sites, Redump focuses on archival accuracy, providing "blueprints" of original discs to ensure that software history is perfectly preserved. 1.
