The programs installed on the drive are irrelevant. An image is just that. Not file related. It can also be a totally different operating system.

The docking station is a must. That's the only way to restore a blank drive in the PC. Putting a back up drive inside a PC defeats the purpose of having a back up as the drive will be powered everytime the machine is turned on. The purpose of a back up is to be stored off site so you've got it when you need it.
