I've been hearing a clicking from inside my laptop since yesterday and started getting curious since it wasn't anything I've heard before. I blew out any dust and it persisted, so I cracked open the bottom and found out the noise would have been emanating from my hard drive. When I turned on the laptop again, it told me my hard drive was corrupted and could fail soon, so I should back it up. I obviously want to do that, so I dug up my external hard drive made for the purpose of backing up info. I have it plugged in and have disk management open, but I don't know what to do next. My question is as follows:
How do I move the data from my C and D drives onto my external hard drive backup?
Is this even what I want to do? It's all I can think of, but I am in no way a pro at computers, hence me asking here. Apologies if this question has already been answered 100 times, but this is my first time using this site.
