I played around with Kali(I know I know) and raspberry pi for a bit and I got the hang of it a bit. Think I'll go with Mint on one drive for school and such and on the other drive Arch for gaming. Thank you for your time.
Nothing exactly wrong with that but I don't think you'll need the extra layer of separation. Most Apps on Mint should be available Arch as well and run generally as Bug free as on Mint (Edit: a "graphical" representation of what level of Bugginess you can expect: Many Bugs > Some Bugs > Few Bugs > Windows 10 (personal experience) > Arch Linux > Almost no Bugs > Linux Mint > No Bugs). Not splitting the OS would save you some hassle (for example after school work is done you can start gaming faster as well as simpler disk partitioning) on the other hand depending on yourself it might offer advantages (can't get as easily distracted from schoolwork with games if you have to reboot the PC for it)
I know that you apps are available across distributions but I wanted to use a stable distro for school that I trust not to brake and another one where I can experience and customize without worrying to much about breaking it.
as I said nothing wrong with it, just wanted to add some info in case the decision was made based on some misunderstanding. If you think that's the best fit for you go for it
I'm not yet sure but I'll try them out. Thank you for taking the time
