Cloning Hard Disk


I'm having problems with a hard disk in a Debian Sarge server. The disk
becomes unreadable. I suspect either a problem with the disk or the ide
on the motherboard. I don't think there are data errors on the disk
itself.

Is there some way to clone what I've got on this disk onto a replacement?
I don't really want to install everything from scratch.
