18.04.2 LTS dual boot with Win 10 Pro is causing Windows corruption
I'm trying to dual boot a new Dell OptiPlex 5060 Micro. I've setup it up multiple times with various configurations, but get Win10 corruption every time when using SATA III interface (I've tried Seagate 2.5 HDD, Samsung 860 EVO SSD and WD 1TB SSD drive, same error with all). Once I install and use Linux and switch back to Win10, Win10 will not load, either blue screens with uncorrectable error or will not load at all (black screen, video lost and never recovers). Even if I can repair Win10, it happens again once Linux is loaded. Tried just for grins an M.2 SSD, same dual boot setup, it worked fine (always partitioning single drive btw). So is this a software problem (I am assuming not because M.2 interface worked, and SATA III didn't), or a BIOS problem/error (running latest available), or hardware problem (bad). I just cannot understand why Windows Boot Manager or disk partition is getting corrupted by running Linux instance but apparently only when running drive from SATA III interface but works fine with M.2 interface.

It sounds as though there is some corruption occurring when running Linux. I have seen this occurring when Windows is using Intel's RST (rapid storage technology) which uses a small (16gb) SSD as a disk cache in Windows. Some Linux users have tried installing installing Linux on that small SSD which corrupts Window's "disk cache". I'm not saying this is your problem, but it may give you a direction to look that you perhaps haven't thought of.
