Apologies upfront if I have posted this question in the wrong section!
I'm intending to install a Samsung 980 Pro NVME as a 'second' NVME Drive. I'm probably over thinking the process and the more I do the more doubts enters my head.
Presently I have my Win 10 OS on a 970 Evo NVME located in the 'number 1' slot of my AsRock Taichi X570 motherboard. Can someone confirm that it's okay to 'simply' install the 980 in the second slot and then move my OS across for the improved access time. Or....
... is it best to move the 970 Evo to the second slot (hopefully the OS still connects to the 3rd party software), install the 980 into the first slot, then mirror the OS across wtih the Samsung Migration software?
3rd Option (here's the evidence of me over-thinking it, moving the OS to available empty SSD [non-NVME] , setting the 980 Pro into the first slot, the 970 EVO into the second slot then once confirmation is made that the Bios/OS can see the NVMEs, migrate the OS from the SSD to the 980............phew!
Be grateful for a 'guru' to walk me through the process, thanks in advance.
