As others have stated, Dual boot but with two HDs one OS per Hard Disk. Otherwise Windows will write over the Linux grub (the equivalent yi windows MBR) one day (been there, several times 😭) and then it’s a right pain to get it back to normal. For the sync option, there are several options, Dropbox is available as an app on Linux, Also NextCloud works extremely well

@Minty95 Thank you, yeah I think I will probably invest in External Hard Drives as I have a lot of data to store with over 5TB worth currently on my Sync Cloud Storage and that's ever-growing. I looked into a 10TB External HDD and it seems they are around £200 which isn't cheap by any means but is cheaper than paying £300 a year (If I only use up 15TB per year).

Maybe a second hand NAS? They can be found dirt cheap, and often you can upgrade the HDs easily, or if your running a desktop PC with room, just add internal HDs as these are cheaper

@Minty95 The Second-Hand NAS is a good idea, I've already stuffed about 5 hard drives into my already small case for my PC so NAS might be a good option.
