Hello Linux community,

I’m getting a 2TB pcie gen 4 SSD to replace a 1TB gen 3 SSD.

I’m going to start dual booting Linux (looking at Endeavouros because vibes), because it seems that sooner rather than later, Windows will be enshittified. I’m a beginner though in using Linux, only had a bit experience with Raspbian on a raspberry pi for a personal data server. I’m looking to game mainly on Linux, and slowly phase out Windows, eventually only for specific uses if any.

So the plan is: 2TB gen 4 - Win & Linux + general software (productivity, CAD, coding, etc.) 1TB gen 3 - Game library 2TB SATA HDD - Data, long term storage

So my goal to separate the game library is not for performance, but rather to utilize the available hardware, and organization.

Is there any downside to doing this? Are there known issues with Proton and Wine with this config? NVDIA GPU if that’s relevant.

If you guys have experience or any input please help a dude out.

    Thanks for your reply! That’s reassuring.

    Yes, it’s already a bit shitty, so it’s time to be an active part of the Linux community. Year of the Linux desktop amirite!
