So I have yet another query which requires the genius of the users on Unix.com. Having asked around at my work (Tech company) No one can really answer my question thoroughly.

My goal is to get 2 Hard drives running at the same time and allow me to switch between working on one to the other. However, the catch is that both the drives have different operating systems. 1 Windows XP, 1 Linux. The theory to me seems virtually impossible but I'm hoping there is a way for it to work. The drives would not be used to share info between them, merely running at the same time. My reason for doing this is because I am a working man and do not want to purchase a separate setup to be able to perform this. Now if this just a hopeless wish I understand and appreciate everyone's time for looking into it however briefly. Thanks to all.
