I have a internal HDD which is perhaps failing and it shows HDD error at initial boot-up . Now I found that my drive is not showing up and making a strange buzz sound .its not detectable .I searched and found a disk utility in ubuntu .I tried to run it and found that it detects that drive and shows following status :

Assesment : Disk is Ok ,one bad sector

Device : /dev/sda

Contents : Unknown

I've a dual boot of Ubuntu 18.04 and windows 7

the drive was partitioned through windows .

Now I'm stuck and want to back-up my data . so I want to know how to proceed further to backup my data without any loss to data ,thank you !

Edit: output of lsblk /dev/sda:

NAME MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT 
sda    8:0    0 465.8G  0 disk
