What is a benefit of differential backup over incremental backup?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Differential backups are more efficient than incremental backups because, instead of backing up only the changes made since the last backup, they back up all of the data that has changed since the last full backup. This means that, unlike incremental backups, the size of the differential backup is not limited and can expand to contain more data than an incremental backup. Additionally, differential backups are faster to restore since they only need to read the differential backup and last full backup, rather than all of the incremental backups.

I see your point, but I still think the flexibility of differential backups is a major advantage.

I prefer incremental backups because they have shorter restore times compared to differential backups.

That's true, but remember that incremental backups determine the backup copy used to restore the data.
