These days most NT servers have more than one hard disk.
The simple solution is to go ahead and install a bootable copy of NT on a
second hard disk, along with the ADSM client software. This takes little
of
your hard disk space, and is easy to do.
If your C: drive fails, you just boot from D: and start the restore of C:.
If your D: drive fails, you continue booting from C: and start the restore
of D:
