Why each option
A flash drive is the most suitable media for quickly backing up a portable 30 GB file due to its portability, speed, and sufficient capacity.
LTO tape is designed for large-scale, archival, sequential backups and requires specialized drives, making it impractical for quick, portable single-file backups.
A flash drive offers capacities well over 30 GB, is highly portable, and provides fast read/write speeds, making it ideal for quick backups of a single file that needs to be easily transported.
Standard DVDs (4.7 GB) or even dual-layer DVDs (8.5 GB) lack the capacity to hold a 30 GB file without spanning multiple discs, which is slow and less portable.
While a dual-layer Blu-Ray disc (50 GB) can hold the file, flash drives are generally faster and more convenient for quick, portable backups compared to optical media.
