Given a typical minimal system boot results in at least a few hundred KB
being written to disk. Removing .bash_history from that won't make a
noteworthy amount of difference.

Frequent reads/writes to it will shorten its life.

/root/.bash_history is linked to /dev/null

Yes.
How do I remove this link and create a regular .bash_history file?
You aren't seriously asking this question on a list for a Linux

rm /root/.bash_history
touch /root/.bash_history
