Last time I considered Linux, was when I attempted to setup a dual boot with Ubuntu & discovered it was a no-go, since the way EFI/UEFI is partitioned in on a disc, and Windows boot loader being unable to process more than 4 partitions.

Still, Ubuntu trial mode was fun, though I always hear everyone complains about it being too much like Windows nowadays.

Never, ever dual boot with a single disk. You should be booting from a Linux bootloader anyway, but eventually a Windows update will put the shitty Windows bootloaders back as the priority one, and you have to use a live USB and fix it by hand. Using a separate SSD for Linux and setting that drive as your primary boot device means Windows cant fuck with it.
