Imaging Hard Drives

[Terry Bowling]

Sorry I'm late to the discussion.  Pigz sounds really cool and I was
unfamiliar with it also.  However, isn't this just the concept of the
sparse file?  I believe dd, cp, rsync all natively support sparse files.
Not sure what the difference is with the use case described.

Also, I was thinking clonezilla "supported" NTFS.  Keep in mind though all
of these opensource tools support of NTFS is largely sharing the same
source libraries for which official vendor support is difficult because of
the potential patent threats.

What about ReAR?  http://relax-and-recover.org/  might be overkill for
Bernie's single use case.
