I have windows 10 on my main SSD, but space is limited. I'm fine for the time being but will need extra space some time in the future.
I am looking at dual booting with linux soon, so want to purchase a new HDD. If I assign the entire HDD to linux, would I be able to access that HDD for file storage whilst using Windows on the SSD? I could store things on that HDD that I dont use often (like photos I rarely look at, for example).
Alternatively, I could partition the HDD, use one partition for the linux boot and the rest for my cold storage, but if I an do it without I would prefer that.
