Partimage ntfs used block count


Hi

i was always succesfully using partimage to save and restore a win ntfs
partition that use 25 Gb of data ...
then i expand succesfully the win ntfs partition with windows 7 diskmngr
(i run chkdisk /f to verify)
when i try to save it again with partimage ,the program reports wrong used space 95 Gb instead of 25 Gb ....thus parttion backup time increase from 30 minuts to 2 hours ...
i tried with ntfsclone and it correctly save 25 gb of data...
somethig wrong with partimage or somethig wrong with ntfs ?
thanks in advance for the support
Maurizio
