Actually, Linux does support NTFS, although you won’t be able to run executables from it. I suggest getting an external HD/SSD to make a backup of all of your drives, then proceed with the switch to Linux.
Are you just wanting to back up save files? I agree with the other person here, just backup the files that matter to you onto an external drive and then install Linux
You can get a 5tb hard drive for $100, a 4 tb SSD will be about $200, before sales. Worth having if you value your files, even if you’re not switching OS.
I have Linux on a jumpdrive can I install it on my main drive without it effecting my other drives?
Only the drive you install it on will be affected, but the other drives likely won’t be formatted to work with Linux.
Then how do I upgrade to Linux on my gaming computer.

Dude I have no external hard drive that can store all the stuff saved on my two separate drives. No way to back all that up.
Buy one. It’s like 100$ and you’ll have a backup solution.
Guess I should will need at least a 3 terabyte one.
