HP Recommended

I have an HP Omen 45L that came with a 512 GB SSD C:/ drive. When it started throwing SMART warnings, I installed a new 1 Tb SSD in the second connector and cloned the failing drive onto it. Choosing it as a boot selection, I booted from it, and things worked as they should. So, I moved that new device to the top of the boot order list. What I would like to do is remove the old SSD from the boot order, and so avoid having to remove the graphics card in order to physically remove the original device. Is there a way to remove that old device from the boot order list, and if so, how should I do it? I tried several things, such as deleting the entry, but they did not work. Any suggestions are welcome., and thanks in advance.
