I want to install on one hard drive and be able to pull the drive out if I want to keep El Capitan.
Cheryl - you gave me a download link before to get a clean ISO install of El Capitan. Is there one also for Sierra that I don't have to go through App store?
I may not even want to keep it, just want to see if it's all compatible with Adobe Creative Suite/Cloud.
Thanks, all -

If you are careful about what you download and where you search on the Internet, your computer is useable without the latest security updates. My last computer had a 10.6 partition which I used every night. That was after El Capitan was released, so the OS was 5 versions behind. By being careful, I never had any problems.

I would make sure that you had at least 2 separate backups on 2 separate drives in case you have problems. That will allow you to recover.
