Hard drive switch for independent boot

Hard drive switch for independent boot - Lemmy.World

I am building a new PC. I want to run Linux and windows on separate SATA 2.5/3.5 SSD hard drives. I need windows (Winn11 Pro) for work. Linux will run all personal computing needs. I have a horrible history with dual booting Linux and windows (grub getting murdered). I currently plan to shut down the PC, switch power to the drives, and start up on the other OS. Can i use a switch which only toggles power to each drive while keeping data cables attached to accomplish this? Will this be possible with windows on one drive? Is there a smarter solution?
