I agree with Malcom, incremental backups are faster and require less storage compared to disk mirroring.

But incremental backups only save changes made since the last backup, reducing storage space and time needed.

What, no option for backing up the database onto a floppy disk? That's how I did it back in the day!

RAID array? More like 'Raid the fridge' during my study breaks! But seriously, that's a solid choice.

Incremental backup all the way! It's the most cost-effective option and keeps the database running smoothly.
