Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which method of backup is quicker to perform once an initial backup file is created?
A
Full
B
Differential
C
Fragmented
D
Incremental
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The benefit of an incremental backup is that it copies a smaller amount of data than a full. Thus, these operations will have a faster backup speed, and require less media to store the backup.

Detailed explanation-2: -Differential backups are quicker than full backups because so much less data is backed up. But the amount of data being backed up grows with each differential backup until the next full backup.

Detailed explanation-3: -Incremental Backup Incremental backups take the least space and time to perform than differential and full backups, but it’s the most time-consuming out of all of the methods to restore a full system.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
