This is not possible, an "exact mirror". The windows file systems do
not have the ownerships and permissions of the ext4 or other filesystem
used in linux systems.

Often when something doesn't work in linux it's a permissions problem.

Bluntly, Win10 is not a solution to this person's problem. It opens up
huge problems, as the plan is to store a private database on what is
well reported to be a system which "calls home" repeatedly.

A commercial NAS box, or a home built one, would be a better solution.
