Default Cyclic Redundancy Error

I recently transfered all of my mp3s and documents from my 60gig hd to a newly installed 250gig..both WD drives, both IDE. I have been backing up everything by copying and pasting to a WD My Book External. Today when I tried to copy and paste, I got Cyclic Redundancy Errors on 3 (possible more) mp3s and could not copy. Now if I open both drives at the same time and drag and drop to copy the files, then I dont' get anything. So my two questions are:

1. What would cause a CRC copying one way and not another, and why did that suddenly happen?

2. Since I'm just copying and pasting, is there a FREE program to backup documents by telling the program which folders and files to copy and having it able to do it automatically or manually?

FYI..Windows XP SP2, 60gb master, 250gb slave, 400gb my book external (USB)
