Funny you should ask... I just got back from a client site where their hard drive failed last night. I have them set up to automatically image the hard drive once per week, and backup all other nights. I restored the image from last Sunday, and merely copied the newer data files. The Outlook file (outlook.pst) was just a copy from backup to new HDD and it was done!
