If anyone should care - I got almost everything of my hard disk backed up, just in time as it seems. Few hours after the backup (and booting from it again lol) it more or less completely broke down. First I got flooded with read/write errors, then it started to make funny noises. Now all it does is blocking the complete system, so I can't even get my last pieces of smart data.
The disk's failure is total.
