If you're just wanting to copy all the files to a new drive, I would
look into LCOPY by Ortwin Glueck.  It can recursively copy files along
with their long filenames (LFNs).  I think the typical options
are /S/A/V or perhaps /S/A/V/E .

LFN tools

If you're looking to copy the low-level structure, you might look at
John Fine's PARTCOPY.
