I have used partimage's ntfs support in the past, and it worked ok. These days I use (and recommend) ntfsclone. I have done multiple backup/restore to different disks with it. If the ntfs partition is bootable and the starting sector changes you will need to modify ntfs's starting sector. This isn't normally a problem for me when windows is installed on hda1. If you do have problems booting after a move or restore see http://wiki.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfsclone#copy_move_or_restore_windows.
