Peter, a search on Google gave the following webpage describing your Sandisk i100 24GB

http://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1130942-question-about-ssd/ where it says:

It's integrated at chipset/software level. 24GB SSD is too small to use as a system drive so instead it's used as a cache drive. It operates basically the same as the hard drives with built in flash cache, but it's larger so it's more effective. Most often accessed files will be automatically and dynamically stored on the SSD to boost hard drive performance.

Thank you Steve, so my question is: do I include an image of that as well as my 'C' drive?

Peter, if the 24gb SSD is being used purely as a cache drive then you shouldn't need to include an image of it, just backup the C:\ drive.  From your initial screen shot it doesn't look as if the SSD is given a drive letter which again would suggest it being used purely as cache.
