From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah I debated mentioning it because fully agree - UUID should cover it. But idk what bootloader Garuda uses or how it configures it, and I have no experience going from an external USB-C enclosure to internal drive, is it really seamless?
I just trying to advise on the side of cautiousness.
I've recently moved drives between m2 slots and usb-c enclosures and everything worked, but that's also why I used the word 'should' a lot.
I've had zero issues in the past few years moving drives around (even between different systems!) and my experience has been nothing but 'shit just works', but yeah, I know that there's probably edge cases where that's not true.
For what they're doing, though, it should be fine, since there's a relatively low amount of complexity and grub really doesn't care where the drive is as long as it has the UUID at this point.
