If I have Linux installed on an SSD and I plug it into a Windows computer (a PC which I did not use to install linux onto the SSD), would I be able to use linux in that PC from the SSD?

    Maybe. You’d have driver issues for sure.

    Live USBs with persistence are a thing built for this

      No, they would not have driver issues “for sure”. It will work just fine most of the time and you can prepare the ssd for hardware that has problens withnlinux in general like some wireless chipsets.
