Never use 7z for any valuable data, for temporary junk only. Rar is a best choice, especialy due error correction (Reed-Solomon). I seen a lot topics about all 7z packed data lost (possible via a few erroneous bits in archive). Built-in support 7z in Far is solely reason for me sometimes (rarely) to use 7z for noncritical tasks.
