Vista Ultimate 64Bit drive cloner

I found CrystalDriveInfo and my secondary drive (my Vista Ultimate
64bit Drive C SMART status was read with a Caution status. This
drive SMART status is telling me that Reallocated Sectors Count is
causing this:

05 100 100 __5 000000000001 Reallocated Sectors Count

First, should I worry?

Second, I would then need a disk cloning tool that would preferrably
be free and would clone my "used space" to USB drive.

Your HD maker will likely have a free diagnostic utility

Everyone around here will more than likely mention Acronis true image. As it is free and works very well

***EDIT*** I take that back. I found a different one that is completely free. Acronis is just a trial base. Here is a completely free disk image clone utility.
