Just make sure the boot order is set correctly in the BIOS, it will probably override it to boot from the new drive. Set the prirority / first drive to be your old one with Windows on.

Hi guys ! I actually have a gen3 ssd installed in the gen4 slot of my motherboard and im planning to buy a new gen 4 ssd for extension. I wanted to know that if i place my gen4 ssd in the main slot and the ssd which im currently using (which has the windows) in the gen 3 slot ,do i have to install windows again or do i have to change some boot setting ? Im fine with using my older ssd as the boot drive btw  ! Pls help
