So Macrium Free can restore individual files and folders (I just seem to have found, Paragon can do this as well) - That changes a whole lot (it might remove the need for the Hardlink Backup step).
Why I want to image the whole drive: As has been said, both OSīs documents folders (and other as well) have been moved to the data partition, and are shared between the OSes (Win7īs Documents is in D:\UserFolders\Markus as is Win8īs Documents). This is done via Windows built-in controls, and has been said to make D a system partition as well. Thatīs why I want it included in the image, just to be sure (if thatīs overkill, please tell me :) )
As for how often or how "firmly" compressed backups will be done, thatīs not yet decided. Iīm still trying to settle on a general concept before thinking about things that depend on the capabilities of the program used in the end.
Cheers, Markus
