Okay, so say I did switch to Linux. I would have to transfer all of my files that I have saved from Windows and try to make them compatible with being on Linux. It's also very excruciating and mentally painful that I would just have to start from scratch. I like all the various things I have saved on my PC i would not want to lose them
As long as you have your files backed up properly it shouldn't be too difficult. If you don't, I'd be more worried about what happens if one of your drives failed and how you'd retrieve that data.
