Question Swapping m.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 to PCIe 3.0

[SamyOhh]

I recently purchased a new m.2 PCIe 4x4 SSD because of storage issues but I noticed that the current SSD I have is installed on the only 4x4 slot, the other slot being 3x4. My motherboard is an MSI B550-A PRO, I'll attach the specifications page if that would help. Can I swap the current boot SSD to the 3x4 slot without any issues? I also have sensitive data on it so I'll probably create a backup/image of it regardless. If it's not possible to swap, what should I do? I tried using macrium reflect to create a rescue USB but it wouldn't boot properly.

change the boot order manually in bios to windows boot after swapping.
eventually use easy bcd to repair the boot
