Option F, for 'Fridge-Worthy Backup Plan'! Take a full backup every other day and rotate the tapes. It's like a game of backup Tetris, but with higher stakes.

Option B is my pick. Incremental backups on weekdays and keeping the full Monday backup offsite? Sounds like a solid plan to me. Although, I hope they don't lose the 'Incremental' Monday tape under the coffee machine.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option E. Daily full backups with weekly offsite rotation sounds like a good compromise between security and convenience.

Option C seems like the best choice. Differential backups are more efficient than incremental, and keeping the full backup offsite ensures high security and easy recovery.
