partimage failed profoundly on my NTFS drive. I ended up with a backup that I couldn't use--and now I have to reinstall every one of my programs by hand again. When I tried to restore the backup, it would attempt to request more backup data files than existed--and there was no indication on backup that it had not saved all the data! Luckily I had a file backup of my personal data (NOT using partimage, of course) to use when my drive failed, or I'd be screwed. Will never trust partimage again.
