Hi,
Will backup get completed quickly (the time taken for backing up large databases) on backup device or using backup command If backup device, why
It's the same procedure, whether you commit it via a GUI (window menu->next->next...) or command prompt (BACKUP command) it makes no difference.
In both cases you use a backup device to backup your database. If you are a learner you'll probably use the user friendly windows menu. If you are advanced you'll probably use the SQL command: BACKUP
Have you checked the same on your environment
IMHO I don't see much difference in between and it makes a lot of difference betwen normal disks & RAID based ones.
BTW do you have any issues in your environment for such behaviour, if so let us know.
