Creating Image

I have grub, I'm using it for a dual boot system.  If the drive were to fail 
I would make it just a Linux box.

It's just a development box and it's only 20GB.  So if my HD failed and I 
installed a new one this would do it then,
backup,
dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/sda1 bs=16M
restore,
dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/hda1 bs=16M

The USB drive is much larger than my server HD.

My main concern is that I have spent so much time researching and 
configuring this box, I don't care about the data.
