It’s pretty straight forward if you don’t do anything else, get a fresh new drive just for it. I’ve been using Mint for a few weeks now and honestly other than some glitch i keep experience here and there(steam store page is noticeably slower and laggier for some reason, and sound glitch that require restart to get rid of) and some initial setup fiddling to suit me, i really doesn’t notice any different than what i’ve been doing in win10.
