I finished my first build a few months ago, put fedora workstation on it, everything’s been great so far, but there are a few games I have and love which don’t work, or are incredibly unstable. so I’m looking for a small, let’s say 256gb SSD, to dual boot with windows for those games as well as creative work with lightroom.

My current drive has enough storage for a windows dual boot on its own, but I do not want windows to hide the linux partition or delete it completely.

So my questions are:

  • Should I get a larger SSD than 256gb?
  • what would be a good drive at that size?

    You can get a 1 TB for $80-100, or 2 TB for about $150-180. I would go with 1 TB minimum so you don’t have to micromanage the storage space.

    My last ssd was 512 GB and even that would only let me keep a few games installed at a time. Much happier with 2 TB now.
