I am planning to use an external hard drive to make a copy of my system partition using Macrium Reflect. Will my disk get formatted while doing this? If not, can I put that external drive with the ISO file on it and just use it like any other storage for media and files?

Sure, pick all your disks or drives. When you make one picture of them, it will be one big file that is about 50 to 55 gigabytes.

If you run Macrium to create an image, your other drives stay working like regular ones. Making an image gives you one file called xxxx.mrimage.

I take a full picture of my world and then make some small changes over time. This lets me go anywhere I want within the last thirty days without needing a new start.
