You just reminded me.
At one point I had Windows take up two drives, one for boot and one for games. However, I only ever really used it for this one piece of software that I couldn't get working on Linux, so I nuked it and reinstalled Windows on the smallest drive I have, just for that software.
Two weeks later I got the software working on Linux, and I completely forgot I even have a Windows partition up until now. It's been months.
My windows "partition" for work is just a single VM image that sits on one of my two Linux-formatted drives.
The software I had needs GPU acceleration and I couldn’t be arsed fixing that. At the time I had an NVidia GPU as well, and that makes things extra shit.
I've got the images for Windows 10 Pro and Windows XP on my server, to use remotely in case I ever feel the need.
