My personal preference is to keep all my files on a different ssd than my C:// drive. That way if my C drive (OS) becomes corrupted, I just reinstall windows on it and I’m good to go.

Well, that doesn't help much with aggressive malware/ransomware. They also scan and alter the data on the other connected drives.

An external drive, which get only connected for the backups / copying of data is a bit more secure.
