    Hi I tried backing up just the C partition of my SSD but Clonezilla wouldn't. Instead it spits an error:
    which says "Bad number of free or total clusters"

    Can you help me. I thought this might be because of bad clusters but windows doesn't seemt to be finding any bad sectors. If you have any other tools i might be able to use to check error, that would be most welcome.

    I am going to do a HD sential read test to see if anything pops up

    It means you have file system integrity issue.
    Please run a "chkdsk /f" in your MS Windows to check/fix the file system integrity first, then you should be able to use Clonezilla to backup your device.
