  For drives with any file structure, Ghost V7.0 can
make an exact
 copy of the drive and restore every block in the exact same location.
 With SCSI drives or drives where the controller does the bad block
 mapping, this allows the image to be restored on the same size or
 larger drive.  When the bad blocks are handled by the OS, then
 the restore must be done on the identical drive if you did not start
 with a Windows/DOS file structure.

 Sincerely yours,

This is probably true for only FATxx,and NTFS partitions though. I don't 
think HPFS is supported anymore, unfortunately. I know on earlier versions, 
the image source and target must be the same size.
