I want to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 10 on my SSD, but I also want to partition the HDD so that:

  1. There is a 1To shared space between the OS(s)
  2. The rest is reserved/allocated to Linux (Windows can't access it)

How should I proceed?

PS: I am new at this and I can't seem to find an easy-to-understand explanation on how storage restriction works.

Restriction is unnecessary as Windows can not natively read Linux partitions, while Linux can read windows partitions. Thus to share between them, format the partition with NTFS. For a partition that is Linux only format it ext4.
