In my upcoming build, I am planning on dual-booting Linux Mint and Windows 8.1/10
Linux will go on a 128GB Sandisk Ultra Plus
Windows will go on a 250GB Samsung 840 EVO
Here is the question. I have to write the MBR with Linux to dual boot. Will the MBR being on the slower of the 2 drives affect boot times? If I write the MBR to the Samsung drive, will it slow down boot times by having to look to one drive and then back to the other? Is either difference going to be more than a second of difference, anyway?
Just not really that clear on how it functions.
