I know Win 7 has disk imaging built in, but I'm not sure if it's incremental.
Norton Ghost seems to be pretty good, along with Paragon and Acronis.
What do others use? It would be great to find something free, but I have a feeling I may have to purchase to get the quality scratchhead
I'd like to be able to mirror my system drive and have it mirrored incrementally, say on a weekly basis.

Iv used Ghost a little in the place im doin work experience, mostly pulling images off they're server and disk to disk and it works a treat. I dont know if it does incremental backups.

Actually iv just checked it out there and it does, expand the features section

Ghost I've used when I worked in IT but it was always pre mad eimages that I used alongside WinXP to stage new ePoS.


Paragon I use at home.

I used this last year to do a straight clone and it worked pretty well.

Acronis 2010.  Taken loads of images and they always work.  Apparently 2011 is bug ridden though and most advise staying with 2010....

Ghost version 7 is the one for me, fits on a single floppy, much better than the crappy bloatware that's doing the rounds now. Doesn't support incremental backups though.
