Cheers Andre.

Have to admit I don't like the Backup feature of Doze much... slow, terrible compression and you can't make more than one copy per location. I've noticed a serious bug where it actually slows down win7 bootup significantly if you have separate system and data drives like you might if you had a small SSD for that and you save that system's image to the data drive. Who the hell knows why but it's so.

I use the free version of Macrium Reflect found here:

(Create a windoze version of the recovery disk as it can handle raid arrays.)

Regards.
