minus-squarewarmaster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·22 天前On my work laptop I boot to Aurora Linux from an USBC caddy with an M2 SSD inside. The laptop’s internal drive is still factory fresh. Ask your IT guy, he might be cool with that. The laptop itself is unchanged. Windows OEM license untouched.
