You can download the original iso from Microsoft.com and install without activating any license. You'll be able to use W10 indefinitely with irrelevant limitations.

You can definitely copy the blockchain over. But, this is only necessary if you are solo mining. With only 2 rigs, you should be pool mining.

I've just bought a second computer and don't really want to buy another copy of Windows. So the obvious thing to do is use a Linux distro.

Will I have to download the Ethereum blockchain again or can I somehow copy the blockchain from my Windows computer?

Thank you!
