The DISASTER_RECOVERY: saveset includes things the system *thinks* are
necessary On my Lotus Domino server (Notes email), it thinks drive E:
(where the mailstore is) is a "system critical" file.
So that part of the DISASTER_RECOVERY saveset is like 400G+.
Look at what Windows thinks are the system files; see if it's pulling in
anything from another drive ..
