Hello!

I would like to do dual boot on my new SSD disc. So i will use win and linux on it but all my pictures and movies... i want to have on separate HDD disc (like data disc).
Questions:
- in wich format should be that HDD disc?
- can i safely read and write data from that HDD disc when i am using win or linux?

thanks

Each operating system uses different file systems. The best choice would be to install first windows at the ssd, allocate to them a partition of the hdd, then install linux on the ssd and allocate to them the remaining hdd space. Note that most linux distros' file browsers support windows file systems
