Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Full Backup This is the most time-consuming backup of all methods to perform and may put a strain on your network if the backup is occurring on the network. But it’s also the quickest to restore from because all the files you need are contained in the same backup set.
Detailed explanation-2: -Incremental backups Because an incremental backup will only copy data since the last backup of any type, an organization may run it as often as desired, with only the most recent changes stored. The benefit of an incremental backup is that it copies a smaller amount of data than a full.
