I use Acronis, it is even on sale in the hot deals forum.

Acronis is good. Personally, since I have Ghost 2003 I use that.

An installable program and a bootable disk. It supports on the fly partition resizing; which is what you want.

I use Acronis now and have had very good luck with it. I used to use Drive Image but only got headaches for my efforts.

EDIT: a great thing about Acronis is you can start the restore process from Windows if you'd like. Plus the program is very fast.

Acronis True Image.

Acronis TI or Paragon....

Acronis sucks when it comes to new technology and releasing updates though.

Acronis

I use Partition Commander. It works well as a bootable CD although when installed on Windows, it's destroyed my master boot files a couple of times.

I used Acronis before I had an issue with bad memory which corrupted every backup I had. Now I am doing disk to disk copies, which sucks. I am going to be trying out Windows Home Server and see how that works.

Try out HDClone. It's freeware and installs on a bootable disc.
