I have a backup drive that connects though usb I would love to scan with spybo s&dt. Unfortunately I cant find any way to do that. Is there a way to choose which folder or hard drive on your system to scan? As far as I can tell it just automatically scans all of your /C drive and nothing else.

Hello,
Please have a look at the "Directories" in the "Settings" when you run Spybot - Search & Destroy in "Advanced Mode". There you can add additional harddisks or folders.
You can also use the command line parameter allhives.
/allhives
Scans all windows installations on your system, even inactive ones.
Example: "C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /allhives
