From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My thought process was basically the same as yours, and what I did was to get a nvme ssd, a usb to nvme adapter (because my mobo only had 1 m2 slot and that was occupied), and install endeavour there. It fails sometimes at launch because being connected through USB is not so reliable, but whatever, restart once or twice and it works.
Anyway, I have all my drives mounted (the windows C drive, the extra ssd and the extra big hdd) without issues, all ntfs, games installed in the ntfs drive work flawlessly, no need to reinstall thanks to proton lol. I read, write, and interact with those drives without much though on the fact that they are ntfs.
