Creating a Backup image on logical drive

Thread solved

I have a laptop with Windows 11 installed on it and it comes with a 1TB SSD drive. On this laptop,  I have created a 500GB logical drive for data (d:\) through Windows 10 Disk Management tool.

My question is whether can I create an Acronis Image of the C:\ Partition [which contains Windows, program files and data] on the logical drive ? 

If that is possible and upon recovering C:\ drive will it work? I understand that some Image Programs do not encourage creating data on logical drives [in case of hard drive failure] and they recommend external USB drives.

Thanks.

You could do as you suggest here however, as you also note in the case of drive failure you would not be able to restore the backup so all would be lost.
