I think you have to back up the whole drive but I have never done it TBH. You not have a poundland? 4 dvd's for a quid? not the best quality but as for rarely used storage they are fine.
I have my music backed up many times:
I burn winrar files to DVD when I have enough.
I burn MP3 ETC files to DVD'S.
I have a 250gb portable HD that runs by USB only, so no power is used.
My favourite and rare albums are backed up online for free. PC World do a gb back up for free with the option to upgrade.
I burn my fave albums straight onto C.D's so obviously they can be ripped back.
