What type of back-up is slowest to restore from?
A
Fragmented
B
Incremental
C
Differential
D
Full
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -However, since as everything is backed up in one go, it takes longer to backup compared to other types of backup.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Incremental backup type includes all new and modified files since the last full, differential or incremental. It is the smallest backup type. When you need to restore an incremental backup, it will take longer as all backup versions since the last full to the latest incremental will be restored.

Detailed explanation-3: -Incremental backups are completed quickly and require fewer resources. Disadvantage: While incremental backups have the fastest backup time, they also boast the slowest data recovery time.

Detailed explanation-4: -Incremental Backup Only the recent changes (increments) are backed up, consuming less storage space and resulting in a speedy backup. However, the recovery time is longer since more backup files will need to be accessed.

Detailed explanation-5: -An incremental backup is a backup type that only copies data that has been changed or created since the previous backup activity was conducted. An incremental backup approach is used when the amount of data that has to be protected is too voluminous to do a full backup of that data every day.
