The marketing offers you a capacity calculated by estimate 2:1 compression ratio. So you have 100GB capacity but they claim 200GB will fit because of compression. There is no magic compression so you can test yourself how the actual ratio of your data is. Already compressed or encrypted data can not be further compressed so the ratio in this case is more of 1:1. The real specs are hidden here: http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=4AA4-2010EEE&doctype=brochure&doclang=EN_GB&searchquery=&cc=uk&lc=en > I don't know what exactly mean "bloated data"? Bloated data is data which much redundancy like uncompressed tif html or text files. With this you will get a good compression ratio. With jpeg and the like further compression is not useful at all.
