    Whenimaging C, do I need to image the system reserved D?


    I know the hard disk partition D is system reserved but does it change and do I need to image ad restore it?

    The System Reserved partition holds your boot files . So if you're using Windows Backup and Restore you want to back up the System Reserved partition . It shouldn't have a letter it should be hidden .
