- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

I'm glad I've always kept Windows on a separate disk.
Mine still got fucked.
On laptop?
Yep. Depends on your exact laptop if there's space for a second drive. On my old 2011 MacBook pro I uninstalled the CD drive and installed a second SSD. Well, upgrading the HDD to SSD in the first place... THEN a second SSD
I'm sure laptops with only 1 NVMe slot exist, but you can just not buy them
Also on laptop, yeah - I only ever had one laptop in my life (a Gemini Celeron for like 300 monies), but it has two drives (both sata iirc).
(I only need it to remote to my servers & maybe some web browsing.)
I assume this isn't usual?
For any modern laptops, it is very rare to find one with dual SSD. I guess for your case it is different, my old 2012 Thinkpad can take dual drive too but it is slow.
Yes, most laptops only have one drive. One with two SSDs is very rare, especially in the low end market.
The only real time it wasn't rare is during the SSD introduction. Laptops would have a small SSD(because expensive) and larger normal HDD.
