Is there any way to copy all the updates and service packs to a new drive?

SMARTDRIVE is telling me the hard drive my OS is on is going to fail. I'm using win2k server, and as far as I'm concerned it's the best Microsoft has to offer. So another OS is not an option.

It's up to service pack 4, and there are quite a few security patches and updates. I know you can't just mirror the drive, but is there a way to copy sp4 and all the updates? They are all in individual folders in the winnt directory so the hook is how to reinstall them after I install the OS on the new drive. Any high powered techies out there?
