Works for me, I've had to restore a couple of times when my RAID array thought it had died due to dodgy SATA connectors. It's not installed by default with XP Home but you can manually install it from the CD. I do a full backup once per week and an incremental backup (only backs up files that have changed since last full backup) every couple of days, or when I've just done something important like copy a CF card full of images.
