Chapter 40 - Backup and recovery methods // Utility comparison: knowledge check spoiler alert

GRO 108

I typed this comparison table up after completing the knowledge check in this chapter because I thought it was a really good way to help analyse the utilities features.

Putting it here in case anyone else finds it useful

tar	true	false	false	true	true	false
