Sup e-males.
I have a shitload of data on my pc. Mostly photos and videos since I do video as a hobby. That means, that I often dwell in less than reputable sources for obscure plugins and pirated software. How do I backup/keep data safe, if my main computer is probably infected every once in a while?
I purchased several external drives, and I'm wondering whats the correct way to start backing up everything without backing up spyware too.

Get MEGA or ownCloud or a NAS or something. If you're worried about viruses infecting your external storage, just back it up often and don't connect the backups to your computer in any way. Back everything up as encrypted archives, disable executable permissions, and don't run any suspicous executables with your storage connected. But this is overkill, probably.
Alternatively, you could try something like sandboxie, or just Common Sense.
