That part confuses me too. Does this tech YouTuber only have one computer? He couldn't do a clean install on computer for testing purposes? Isn't that what these channels normally do?
I think their logic is for side by side comparison with the same hardware since no GPU and CPU are the same. Having the same hardware gives you the best comparison but yeah two separate drives would be a must. But they are new and don't realise yet how much of a dick Microsoft is yet like we have.
Depending on the MB setup, a SSD swap may be in order if the bus is shared on the other slots.
Either way, I think he's a very typical new Linux user from Windows and as such has valid points about usability, pitfalls, and level of effort required for a switch over and is interesting at least to me.
$20 for an ok NVME.
I have two separate EFI boot partitions (one for windows, one for Bazzite) on a single drive. So I still don't think this is an excuse.
