Always restoring a image onto a hdd. Good or bad?

[Phil2008]

Can you damage a hdd in anyway by restoring a hdd image instead of doing a full format and a proper reinstall of windows?

No reason why it should anyways my Windows XP SP3 image takes 4mins to install.

 

[AbsenceJam]

No, of course not.
