Has anyone done this? The question could be strung out to backing up "any" unsupported file system.

So the partition will appear as unpartioned space instead of unsupported file system which is what set of my alarm bells.

I am thinking to back up using the full sector backup option not the intelligent backup and hoping that would effectively clone it to an image even though reflect doesnt recognise the filesystem.

Is my line of thought correct? Googling only yielded people doing clones rather than image backups.
