Good HDD Image Software for Vista on RAID 1 setup

Hi,
I need to set my machine back to XP from Vista to do some testing and
want to create an image of my current RAID 1 HDD to an external USB drive.

I have used Norton Ghost before, but the version I have does not support a
USB external drive.

Any suggestions from you on good software to use would be appreciate. Please
give your brief reasons.

Thanks

Andre

The quality of Symantec's products have slipped lately, and that's why I stopped using Ghost and started using Acronis TrueImage Home.

Acronis TrueImage has far better options too than Ghost. My favourite is the ability to mount backup images as virtual drives, so that data may be recoverd from them without the need to do a full restore.

It should work for you too:

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but, I am not
sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
