    I've not used Acronis in a Server environment, but I have used it for years to image Hard Drives containing either Linux or Windows, or a dual boot. It has worked flawlessly so far (I was crossing my fingers as I typed that last bit )

    EDIT: I should add, I've always used the boot media to image and restore, never used from within the OS.

    flawlessly = no flaws.

    No problems with it at all, it did what it was meant to do. I hope that's clearer.

    There is also a completely free and Open Source drive imaging software Clonezilla which I have heard good things about.
