HP Pavilion g6 w/ i5 processor is showing low disk space warning on E:TOOLS drive: how do I fix?

My name is Gabe and my computer that I have had for bout maybe 7 months is showing a warning on my back-up drive because lack of space. I have a HP Pavilion g6 series, Product # is A4A93UA#ABA if that helps,with i5 processor (dont know if that helps) and I am running Windows 7 as my operating system. It says my Drive E:TOOLS has low storage space and I have been trying to figure out if I could just fix it but no. I haven't downloaded anything major and use my computer for school mostly. I dont know if I should try to make a copy of this hard drive externally (disk, one of those hard drives that plug into the USB port, buy internal hard drive, etc.). I dont have much money so the cheapest option is greatly appreciated. Just need to fix this problem. Thank you whoever may help!

While I appreciate the link, it doesn't solve the problem because it's about Drive D, not E.  I too am getting the message stating that Drive E is running out of space.  Can anyone please help?  Thanks very much!
