Have you ever tested a restor of that disk imaage? How does it handle the DB write cache?

No, we just bought the software. Haven't got the chance to test the database restore yet, but we tested other servers and it works pretty sleek. It's a pretty cool tool. Have a read at http://www.acronis.com.
We stop the server service before taking the image, and we don't use disk write cache.

I had missed the part about you stoping the service first. But anyway, never assume your backups work. Periodically test them. You don't want to discover a problem at the wrong time.
