If you do not desperately depend on fast speed, a HD with solid USB 3.0 connection.
And backup copies on a secondary, depending on your data value: tertiary device, DVD, stick.
When it comes to just editing texts and photos, speed is no argument, the data files are simply to small. Even a rewritable CD then will do.

I keep backup of all important stuff on an auxiliary HD which never goes anywhere near the internet. But I didn't know that USB sticks can 'break'... how can that happen? No moving parts...
