Also known as: volume, rar volume
One file of a split archive, such as movie.part07.rar or data.7z.003. Volume numbering tells the unpacker the order to read them in, and each carries its own CRC32 so damage can be localized. PAR2 verification reports results per volume, which is why a repair log names specific volumes as damaged rather than pointing at the archive as a whole.
