Backing up database, and restoring

[Swakoo]

Hi guys,

what's the best way of backing up the databases/mails in my plesk box, and keep it such that I can do restore should there come such a day...

please advice

My current version is 7.5, if i do restore, i suppose its preferbly done back on a 7.5? or would 8.1 be able to auto restore back?
