Image for DOS is free for 30 days - then inexpensive purchase.

I've been using it to create/restore partition images to/from DVD. It offers byte-for-byte image verification and has been very reliable. I've successfully restored my OS partition four time since using this.

Hope this helps!

Ghost v7 came with my 8RDA motherboard, but this and earlier versions of Ghost can't write to NTFS partitions.

Ghost 2003 (v 8.0?) CAN write to NTFS partitions, plus it can write also to external uSB 2.0 / firewire devices, either FAT32 or NTFS. I would suggest getting systemworks Pro 2003 OEM. The ghost alone is worth it.
