Hi:
Take a look at a more comprehensive answer posted on this same forum.
https://www.unix.com/filesystems-disks-and-memory/7243-use-dd-command.html
Where are you going to get a 1.79 G drive today??? It is ok to use a larger drive for your destination, as long as it's the same type drive, but the rest of it will likely be unuseable after the operation. It will be reduced to a 1.79 GB drive.
