Upgrading SSD - do I return the old drive?

Hi,
I bought a custom PC specialist system in Sept 2021 - specs listed below although before it was finally built I added to the order a Samsung 2Tb SSD on whoch I have been storing photos to use in Lightroom (LrC).

If I open the order and click on "upgrade" I see I can upgrade to a 4Gb Samsung SSD £245. I presume if I do this they just send me out the drive and I fit it myself (I am happy to do this). As this is called an upgrade do I have to then return the old 2Tb drive to them? Or am I just buying a new drive?

Thank you

They always return the old parts,

e.g. if it was a GPU upgrade from a 3060 to a 4090, they install the 4090 and return the 3060 for you to have as a spare or to sell on.

I always kept mine as a spare in case my current needed to get repaired!!
