Want a laptop with two drives

[SirGeneral]

kinda want a laptop that has two drives (or can have a second drive installed) for two OSes. not really practical or necessary; just think it'd be cool. I know I could probably put 2 OSes on one drive but ehhhh...

all it needs to do is be able to boot from both drives, play 1080p videos at 60hz without exploding and maybe play a game like scrap mechanic on lowest at more than 15fps.

I would get a laptop with a 1TB ssd instead and dual boot on that

Well you can get laptops with M.2 slots  witch can used as a second drive or a nice upgrade down the line.

i know i could do that but

1. would rather have each OS isolated in case one drive gets corrupted

2. honestly i just wanna see if a laptop like what i described exists

Well almost any laptop works in that case most laptops have an M.2 ssd and an HDD

Yeah just look and the there probably is like 250GB SSD and 1TB HDD most common one

But that's just a "configuration".

There are many Notebooks, that come with only 1 M.2 SSD, but still have a 2,5" Slot empty, which you can just put an Sata SSD / HDD into.

 

Most 15" models have that, but look for a teardown to make sure. 14" and smaller don't always have that, but some can.
