I’m planning on dual booting Windows and Linux on my computer, but each system from a separate hard drive, but what about my 3rd hard drive (which i use mostly for storing games, videos etc…) Should i use ExFAT? I can’t really use NTFS because Linux can’t write to it.

    Myself I have dual boot. For the sake of simplicity - let’s say I have 2 drives:

    1. 512GB NVME SSD - for OSes.
    2. 2TB SATA SSD - for games.

    512gb ssd partitioned into 2 parts - 256 for Linux and 256 for Windows.

    2TB ssd without partitions, but a plain BTRFS with zstd compression storage.

    Guess what - There is WinBTRFS driver. I am also sharing the same Steam library (on 2TB ssd) between both OSes… 😅 Works like a charm. 👌👌👌
