Hi,

As you database is in Nonarchivelog mode, before copying the file, shutdown
you database. Then copy all these files to the alternate location. This
will be a cold backup of your database.
As a suggestion I would say that do not keep all your files on one harddisk
only. All your controlfiles and datafiles are in one directory only. Change
their location (atleast of the controlfiles). It is good for database
security in an event of media failure.
