My other computer has 31gig of data, and the backup file is 20gig. The ratio being about 2/3.
while the other computer has a ratio of 3/8. It seems that maybe this computer is not backup up all of the data.

A "normal compressed size" would be around 70% of used space. However, audio files or picture files are already compressed and tend to be included at almost full size. 81/31 is suspicious.

Create a new backups using the method illustrated in this link.
