    This is not answerable without telling us factors like how much data, is data on same drive as OS, how often do you use pc etc etc etc.

    Consider pruning what you have installed to reduce the backup data size. I use a backup cycle of a monthly full backup and weekly differential backups which saves some space since the differential files are smaller. You might need to use a larger backup drive if you remain short of space.

    Macrium reflect, like most other disc image programs, compress the data to some extent. I used to use Acronis True Image, I tried Easeus To Do and the disc image file sizes were all about the same.
