I have 2 drives in my machine. Linux right now is installed on 1/4 of the first drive and I am going to start moving parts of my 2nd drive, which is just games on Windows, to a 1/2 combo of NTFS and BTRFS. Essentially giving Linux more space as it replaces Windows as my gaming daily driver. With the eventual plan to move that entire 2nd drive over to BTRFS, and allow Windows to have 3/4 of the 1st drive for games that only run under it.
Curious how folks have set this up. Currently I have Steam, Heroic and Lutris installing to ~/Games. So it may make sense to mount my new drive there, but I am not sure that in home folder mounts make sense. I also realize I could potentially use BTRFS to make it look like my space is all one mount point vs multiple, but given the complexity of that filesystem I am worried there is a downside I am not aware of.
Any suggestions? What has worked for you for your setup?
I can’t leave them both plugged in because Windows keeps complaining that my drive is damaged and it needs to run a disk check. The reason I don’t set up grub or something else properly is mainly laziness. I use one OS for a project that lasts several months at a time so I don’t switch between them that often. It’s just not worth the time or effort to save two minutes every few months
