I agree with Viola, incremental backup is more efficient in a production environment with frequent changes to the database.

Hmm, I'm torn between C and D. Maybe I should just roll a dice to decide. 50/50 chance of getting it right, right?

Definitely D. Who wants to backup the whole database every day? Ain't nobody got time for that!

An array of independent disks can provide good backup options, but it may not be the most efficient method for a production environment.

Disk mirroring is good for redundancy, but not necessarily the most efficient for backups.

B is the way to go. Differential backups are a great balance between speed and storage requirements.

I think the answer is D. An incremental backup of the database on a daily basis would be the most efficient. Differential backups are too slow for a production environment.
