Â*Â* There used to be an Englishman in the programming
groups who liked to use caddies. I don't know quite how
they worked, but somehow he installed a chassis in
a drive bay and then had 3 1/2" enclosures for the
hard disks, that fit into the chassis. So when he wanted
to test software, rather than use a VM, he just pulled
out one hard disk and slid in another, with a different
OS on each disk. I picture it as something like an 8-track
player but I've never actually seen such hardware.
Yes, I remember hearing of that kind of setup, but elsewhere.
Â*Â* Personally I change hardware very rarely, so I don't
need any special convenience.
Most of us use VM for those things, I guess...
M Coolermaster CM690 II case has what they called an X Bay built into
the top It is a slanted ramp with SSD connectors at the lower end It is
a hot Swap bay and you can plug or unplug SSDs at any time.
I have about 5 12 GB samsung and Kingston SSDs on which I have installed
Windows 10 insider
Windows 7
Linux Mint
MX Linux
ZenialPup 7.5
So I just slide in whatever OS I want and boot into that drive.
Best thing since sliced bread, They still make that case 10 years later
but sadly have not retained that feature.

Sorry, 120 GB SSDs, Pretty hard to find 12 GB ones. :-)
