What purpose did you have in mind for the external drive? If it was to
backup your entire C: drive (usually the Windows partition) you will need an
imaging program such as Ghost 9 or True Image.
If your intention is to backup your personal files you will need a good
backup program such as Backup MyPC.
You can search Google for these programs. They are NOT free.
