I have a 128 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD. I made two partitions on the SSD, one containing Windows 10 (pre-installed) and other empty. I want to install Ubuntu on the empty partition of the SSD.

If I do that, will I be able to access the HDD from either of the OSs? If so, how can I do it? Please explain in detail...

I need both OSes because I want Windows 10 for gaming and Ubuntu for programming.

yes you can install ubuntu from another partition together with windows in ssd drive.

you can access partition on hdd in windows or linux ..

but i suggest to turn off fasboot mode in advanced power options(windows). becouse some time if you try bootup to linux. you can see file/folder on hdd . but you can't write, edit or delete it.

or

you can change filesystem on hdd partition to "exfat" and install "extfat-utils" to support mount hdd in linux.. if you want fastboot active and write to hdd drive in linux.
