This depends somewhat on what type of file you are backing up. If you're
backing up text files, uncompressed images, some databases, or uncompressed
audio/video you will get a good compression ratio to your tape drive. If
you're backing up JPG images, AVI video, MP3 audio, ZIP/RAR files, or other
compressed formats, then your tape drive will not be able to compress your
data much further.
