How do I backup Itunes library non itunes mp3's on device

Hi everyone





I have a 160gb Ipod classic software version 2.0.5 and I have to wipe out my computer, but I want to save my iTunes library granted I downloaded all my music from various mp3 music sites I purchased absolutely nothing from I tunes my 8000 songs are all free downloads so, I was wondering how could I wipe my computer to factory new setting and save my library is there any freeware software I can use any tips and tricks to keep my ipod classic 160 gb full of my beloved music how would I do this?
