I don't disable the drives in BIOS. I simply have the OS, via boot parameters if necessary, not mount them. Some flavors of Linux - antix for one, at least older versions of it - default to NOT mounting drives discovered on boot by default. Other distros WILL mount them by default. I'm guessing that most of the large distros like Ubuntu, Mint, MX, etc. will mount drives by default. But you should be able to change that via boot parameters. Or remember to manually unmount them after booting.
