You can create a virtual machine using your old SSD with Windows installed, allowing those applications to run in a separate environment.

The main concern is whether Fusion 360 performs well on a virtual machine. Beyond that, consider using SR-IOV or cloning the software to a VM disk format.

I agree with that YouTube person. For virtualization, I rely heavily on VMware and I discovered the Fedora guide on Google.

I managed to set it up via the Snap Store for future use https://snapcraft.io/install/fusion360/ubuntu. Remember to add —devmode during installation. It runs through Wine and so far the performance is satisfactory. I’ll still experiment with the virtual environment occasionally, but now it’s less pressing.
