Turn off RST in Linux Mint without removing Windows.
Turn off RST in Linux Mint without removing Windows.
Well, at least I think I have a solid reason to go all out. *meaning a complete overhaul, possibly swapping the mainboard and case. I wish I hadn’t bought something prebuilt each time I wanted to customize.* Thanks for your support on this.
It seems you're questioning the feasibility of dual booting this way. You might be able to adapt your Windows setup to a standard AHCI configuration, as mentioned in the links I shared earlier. Additionally, your new motherboard needs to handle RST functionality for the switch between states.
I intend to use two distinct M.2 drives for Windows and Mint. That clarifies things, I hadn't considered that before. It makes sense now—I'll confirm the drive supports it if I plan to run Windows on the new motherboard/PC first. Since I already have a spare GPU, a future CPU upgrade, and a new case, I might keep this setup as a separate machine eventually. Thanks.
Are you referring to installing Mint on the existing Windows drive? I wasn’t planning to do that because it’s only 128GB, though the main reason for choosing the 4TB version was to run Mint there. Yes, I could attempt to restore my current Windows installation after cloning it just to test, but I hadn’t considered that option.
