My C drive is only 118 Gb. with 23.8 Gb free space. I have a 2 Tb. external Hard drive that I would like to make my C drive with Macrium Reflect image back-up on the 2Tb disk. Should I proceed with putting the 2 Tb Hd in the place of my existing C drive & boot with the boot disk I made with the Reflect software. I’ve never attempted this before. Would it be legal to replace the present C drive for the much larger 2Tb drive.
Are you going to remove the 2TB external hard drive from it's enclosure and install the hard drive itself in place of the existing internal hard drive?
Your specs show this:
2TB Hard Drive and Windows 10 Pro; 2- 2 Tb & 1-500 Gb external HdD- (Hitachi)
Maybe posting a screenshot of disk management would help clear things up:

In reply to your question, yes I want to use the Hatachi #1 old (F) as the main C drive as it would have a lot of storage left. I transcode home video avi (for most) into DVD (for stand-a-lone players) for friends & family & need a lot of storage.
If the 2 TB drive is an internal drive, you can restore an image of your existing Windows 10 installation to it, or clone your existing Windows 10 installation to it, and reset the BIOS boot priority to boot from it first, no issues.
