Once you have resolved your immediate problem regarding backing up your existing hard drive, it would seem that your situation is one that would merit consideration of a RAID 1 configuration. It is a relatively inexpensive solution.

It is not difficult to do and you would essentially have a mirror image of your hard drive at all times without having to worry about backing anything up.

If ever your main drive crashes or otherwise malfunctions you can just replace it with the mirror drive and you are good to go, again.

I have this set-up on one of my computers where I have a lot of data stored that is very valuable and also would be a huge hassle to constantly back-up.
