Post Backing Up Calibre

Hi Everyone,
I started a thread about moving my library to another computer. But still confused about the process. However, thats later the first thing that I need to do is back up my calibre library. I've never done that its 19.7 gb and I want to put it on my wd external hard drive. I am not a computer person. The reason why I love Calibre is its just point and click and everyting is done. So when I read stuff like configuration and stuff like that im like HUH. PLEASE. HELP.
My first instinct is just to copy and paste. But I don't think that is right. What do I have to do to get the library on the hard drive.

To transfer the library thats not really clear either. I wish someone would make a video. I'm very good with that. But anyway. When you choose the import/export what happens after that? If I have my other computer connected via a usb cord would the calibre folder transfer over if I click import/export in the new computer?

Thank you
