Thanks for looking out but sadly it's a company owned laptop administered by IT.

    On my work laptop I boot to Aurora Linux from an USBC caddy with an M2 SSD inside. The laptop's internal drive is still factory fresh.

    Ask your IT guy, he might be cool with that. The laptop itself is unchanged. Windows OEM license untouched.

    I guess i haven't thought much about live booting. I guess that could be nice for travel. Bring one fewer devices.

    Technically, it's not live booting. It's normally installed, just on an external drive. The OS doesn't feel the difference. You just chose to boot to it from the BIOS. I set it to always boot to Linux by default and Windows as a fallback.
