Copying an outlook folder contents to a disk for backup

I am trying to save the contents of an outlook folder to a disk as back up - does anyone know how to do that?

If you don't want to save the entire .pst file, I have
saved emails to a common folder so that others can access
those emails and it was done by simply highlighing the
email in your inbox or wherever it is kept in Outlook and
choosing save and saving it to a file on another drive.
It will save as an .msg file with a description
of "Outlook Item" When you double click the file on that
drive, it opens as an email in Outlook and the original
email is shown as an attachment. (You may have to
indicate that you want Outlook to open .msg files) I did
it this way because it was faster than searching for other
ways to do it. I'm sure there must be other ways, too.
