Try setting up a dual boot by following these steps. Make sure you have a backup of your data before proceeding. Gather the necessary tools like a USB drive with both OS images. Create a new partition on the C drive, ensuring it’s large enough for your OS and other files. Use reliable software to format the partition correctly. After that, install one OS (Win 10) and another (Ubuntu) on separate boot devices. Double-check everything before starting the installation process.

You can purchase another SSD or HDD and mount it on the other drive. After connecting it, the system will prompt you to choose the boot source automatically. This seems to be the intended process.

Start with a backup first. Partitioning can cause problems. Check if the F and E drives are connected. Remove them, add more space, then set up Linux on the remaining area.

The image displays F with 120GB available, allowing you to reduce this area to free up space before generating an unallocated region. Then, you can form a fresh partition within that empty space for Ubuntu. If you encounter a warning during partition creation, simply adjust the position of F and the unallocated zone, after which set F: logical. Both actions are possible with a free partitioning utility. Once completed, you can establish a main partition for Ubuntu.
