I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 box that I need to be able to re-image at any given point. With VMWare, is it possibly to create a snapshot or image of only a specific drive at a point in time?

Also, would this cause any performance overhead for the image to be maintained?

Assuming you are using Vmware ESXi, you should just be able to right click on the instance, and create a snapshot. It will take up the obvious disk space, and while the image is being created CPU/Disk/Memory usage.
