Personally, I'd attempt to GHOST it first, and if that fails, copy any files/folders you need. If you forget something and it's no longer accessible, it'll be somewhere in the GHOST copy. It's easy to extract the stuff from the GHOST image at your leisure on a working disk drive once you have the data safely imaged.
