The best choice for backing up files for an entire school would be an external hard disk. DVD-ROMs and CD-ROMs have limited storage capacity and may not be able to store all necessary files for an entire school. USB flash drives may be convenient for individual use, but they may not be practical for backing up large amounts of data for an entire school. An external hard disk, on the other hand, has a larger storage capacity and can easily backup files for an entire school.
