It works for us - It's been a few years that I ran into an interesting piece of software called Partition Image. I used it to do images of partitions. That came in handy with a few overheating and short lived hard drives. When they died I simply restored the partitions including the boot partition to a new drive. Everything was restored. Operating system, programs, registry, users and so on.

 

There was only one slight problem. The image was never totally up to date. Understandable - I actually had to go to the site, take down the server for an hour or two and do the image. How often do you think that happened? But that's only distant memory. Today I use Drive backup. It produces the partition images on schedule as often as needed and best of all thanks to the hot image technology it does it while the server does it's job.

But don't take my word for it. Download the functioning trail version now.
