Does anyone know of any Paragon products that work with Windows Server 2008 NTFS to image a hard drive containing the operating system as well as Exchange 2007?

Thanks for your help.

Hmm, if you copy the file system in Recovery CD where no OS is loaded then any of Paragon latest product should work for you. And definitely it should pay no attention what OS is installed on FS. Try PM9.0 as the last one.

Unfortunately I just have PM8.5 version. I'll give it a shot and let you know if it works. Thanks.

Here's my situation, Shepherd:

My server has 2 physical disks, I'll call them Disk 0 and Disk 1 (identical hard drives). When I did a fresh install of Server 2008, it somehow placed the boot partition (Windows folder) on Disk 0 as it should, but placed the system partition (boot files) on Disk 1. Now I am unable to mirror these disks, and can't find a way, short of reformat, to move the system partition over to Disk 0.
I am booting the server to PM8.5 ESE, and see it has a 'boot corrector' function --- would this be useful to me in this situation?
Otherwise, do you have any suggestions as how I can move the system partition to Disk 0?
This server containis Exchange 2007, and I spent quite a bit of time setting this up, and would not particularly enjoy revisiting the problems I had therein.
Thanks for any and all suggestions.
