Have just got a Maxtor OneTouch 4Mini 250g. I will use this on an ASUS 900HA netbook with XP and 160g HDD

Want I would like to be able to do without installing the software is copy a whole partition, my C drive, which is about 3g. How would I do this

I partition my HDD into small partitions, C 4g for OS, D 1.5g for virtual ram, E 12g for programs and F for storing stuff - photos etc. I find that this this way everything runs smoothly.

I bought this because of the SafteyDrill sw that I believe is an imaging program. But on reading the manual it seems to only be able to image the whole HDD not individual partitions. Is this correct or am I not fully understanding how this works.

Thanks
