Seriously, reading the documentation is a necessary recommendation.  It 
would have been useful to suggest WHAT documentation.  I think the 
suggestion of encryption, probably with different passwords, is the way 
to go.  Any attempt to "turn off" the other drive could be overridden.

It's not clear what you're actual goal is, whether it's security from 
malicious users or simple concern that one distro might "contaminate" 
the files on the other drive.  If it's the latter, your fears are 
misplaced, it's perfectly safe to have different distros, or even 
different OSs access the files.  People often use a different distro to 
"rescure" a damaged system.
