Plan on, if possible, cloning my account to a new account on a new internal drive (preferably a 2TB+ drive) to save all my stuff that I want and don't feel like moving over due to laziness. Then on another partition, I plan on having the rest of the space being used for Linux. All I gotta do is make sure the win10 partition doesn't receive an ounce of Internet connectivity at all and pray I don't end up with a virus or something similar somehow (because even the safest internet practices aren't safe enough anymore).

Hopefully I can turn that partition into a cold partition where I can keep the current games I have that aren't downloaded through Steam installed to ensure I can still play them. Then I can slowly debloat it by uninstalling everything I don't need on there and get rid of a ton of files/unnecessary programs so that way I can still have roughly 500-600GB for win10 just in case I ever need it for anything, like a program I genuinely cannot figure out how to get working on Linux.
