BMR is similar to imaging servers. It can restore the entire system including the operating system, any applications and all the data. BMR typically only protects the operating system drive by default. This means if your server has multiple disks you will need to protect the data on those drives as well. It is also similar to System State in that it contains the components needed to get the operating system. The key difference between imaging a server or having the System State backed up on a server is that BMR can restore like an image but to dissimilar hardware. This means you can take the BMR and restore it on an entirely different hardware platform from the platform the server was originally running on.

If you want real bare metal recovery on different hardware, then you must use 3rd party solution such as Symantec Backup Exec system recovery which allows you to restore complete server image on dissimilar hardware without fail. You can recover complete server from previous image backup stored on network, external storage, local storage.
You can download and test it if wanted to (30 \ 60 days trial)
