So, i use linux, i don’t have any windows install on my disk, but someone wants me to install windows on their HDD, so, if i plug said HDD on one of my sata ports and try to install windows 10 on it, will it mess with my linux boot? if yes, is there a way to prevent that without physically disconnecting my main drive? (my main is an nvme ssd, that’s why I’d rather not remove it, already suffered enough trying to screw that in ther

Edit: Fortunally i got to convince the person to bring their whole PC, so now i won’t have to deal with this anymore! Thank you very much for all the answers everyone

    because linux devs made the OS to respect your choice if you want to dual-boot, and they ask/ don’t override stuff windows don’t, they just override and don’t care, or don’t test it
