Keeping Windows 10 and Windows 7 on same SSD while using different SSD for Steam


Recommended Posts

I'm in the process of creating a dual boot with Windows 7 and 10 and am thinking of moving my steam library to an external USB3.1C SSD and running my games off of there, but I was first curious as to what the community's experiences were like. I'm not too concerned about moving my steam library or the speed of my SSD, but I was curious to know whether or not my system might go bonkers if I were to partition my main SSD into two parts, install Windows 7 on one of these partitions while keeping Windows 10 on the other, and play certain games (ie. Skyrim) off of Windows 7 while using Windows 10 for the rest. How would my system respond? Would Windows 10 and 7 interfere with each other were they to be located on the same SSD (albeit separate partitions)?

 

Thanks in advance, any answers are welcome and appreciated.

There shouldn't be any issues. You can safely install two or more os on different partitions while being on the same drive.
