My 3TB drive went from showing no bad sectors to over 70 after one day (thanks protection software)

I bought a new SSD to boot from and a new 10TB drive to clone the 3TB to.

Reckon any of the 3 options is safer? Thanks, am a data noob.

Copy all sectors

Copy all files

Copy all valid sectors according to the layout of the file system
