 Then, if 100 tapes are updated, this would consume (100 x 300 bytes + 100 x 256 bytes) 55KB of uploaded data. This data is usually compressed at a ratio of 2:1, which means that the total upload bandwidth is around 28KB. Then, if 100 tapes are updated, this would consume (100 x 300 bytes + 100 x 256 bytes) 55KB of uploaded data.

 +The TapeTrack Synchronization Suite is designed in a way that it can be implemented to synchronize data using the following techniques:
 +  - Direct invocation from a source computer, where the data is pushed to a TapeTrack Server.
 +  - Direct invocation from the TapeTrack server where data is pulled from a source computer and then updated locally on the TapeTrack Server.
 +  - Invocation via the inetd(8) service to provide a dedicated synchronization server where data can be send via the netcat(1) command.
 +  - Invocation via procmail(5) to facilitate the automated processing of data via email.
