I want to dual boot W11 with Arch on my Raid 0 setup (self.linux_gaming)

Hello, I have recently built an AM5 pc and loaded Windows 11 onto it. I have two M.2 SSDs setup with RAID 0, through the UEFI.

I want to install dual boot a Linux distro to try and play games on it, because I prefer Linux to Windows.

From where I am with W11 and RAID 0 setup, how can I dual boot Arch, for example?

Should I (can I) partition my RAID0 drive?

I'm committed right now to a Win 10 AME and EndeavourOS Dual Boot, and back when I first started running such a setup, Windows (8, 8.1, 10) would always overwrite the boot sector with it's own loader when installed. You can get a dual boot from grub working by deliberately partitioning before installing Windows, then whichever Linux, making sure to install grub during. I gave up on that hassle after one round and now I just use separate drives for each OS.
