When backing up a DC you really only need to backup the system state of the DC. However, in my opinion the system drive and the system state belong together and thus I always advise to backup the system. Reason: custom configurations like directories/permissions/etc., installed apps, etc. When

If the DB is dismounted and only the system mbxs are left (no user mbxs) you can right-click the db and delete, you'll most likely get a message that it's been removed from ESM, but that you have to manually delete the edb and stm files. Then you can go to explorer and delete those two files.
