Dual boot Win/Ubuntu both encrypted, separate disks

Hey,

I've looked about but not been able to find anything solid on how I can implement the setup I'm after...

I've got a laptop with 3 separate disks. I want to install:

Disk 1: LUKS encrypted Ubuntu
Disk 2: Bitlocker'd Windows 10
Disk 3: Veracrypt'd spare NTFS data storage

Disk 3 would have Veracrypt as it's cross platform so I'd have access to my data regardless of whether I was running Ubuntu or Windows and I'd hopefully be able to set it to auto-decrypt the volume regardless of the OS running.

I'd like to be able to choose each time I boot whether to load Ubuntu or Windows (i.e. select the OS before either Bitlocker password or LUKS password prompt), and the only answers I've found have been ones where people have had horrible experiences modifying grub.

Does anyone know if this can work and if so, what order should the OS's be installed, and what changes would I need to make to the BIOS? (i.e. disable UEFI, secure boot etc?)

Many thanks in advance.
