Can I have two c drives in a computer so I pick which one to boot too. So instead of having two computers I can have one. My editing computer doesnt need firewalls and antivirus so thats why I want a separate os drive for that.thx

You don't need 2 c:'s to dual boot.

You can boot from separate drives, but they won't both be your c drive. Set up dual boot and you can pick what OS to boot to.

If you just want the same OS but different environments, you should be able to set up different profiles on that OS.

you could kinda n-rig it too, just have 2 drives in the case... and switch the cables depending on which one you want to use...

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants think about that
