    I’ve been super excited ever since I figured out that I can boot from external USB-C M.2 enclosures, like this one.

    Performance is still quite good booted off external (Gen 3) drive, which allows me to use my whole internal drive for my primary OS rather than having to partition it for dual booting.

      Nice! I have a similar enclosure, and I’ve been thinking about building a little multi boot/backup/portable os drive, but wasn’t sure if I could get it all to work together.

      I played with ventoy and it’s really convenient for storing isos to boot from, just haven’t tried using the extra space for storage/os.
