I've got a laptop with just one SSD, and I'm planning to dual boot Windows and CachyOS. I was thinking of allocating around 250-300GB for Windows and about 700-750GB for Linux. Since I can't add another SSD to my laptop, what are the potential problems I could face while doing this? Any advice would be appreciated!

I've been dual booting on my laptop for about three years now. One issue I've faced a couple of times is Windows updates breaking the Linux boot entry. It's pretty annoying! You can fix it, but it's something to keep in mind.

So besides that, is there anything else I should be concerned about? And if the boot entry breaks, will my Linux data be lost?
