Basic Question About Cloning a Hard Drive

If I clone my C: drive to another HD of the same or larger size, and

Using Macrium Reflect to make the clone.
If you choose the easy option "Create an image of the partition(s)
required...", you're making a perfect backup copy, not a clone.
You must restore the Macrium Reflect backup copy of your choice to a C
drive.
Use a relatively small SDD for your windows/main drive C. Then make
incremental backup copies, which BTW are also read-only browsable. That
makes for a wonderful system.
