Is it possible to remove an SD card that has been formatted for internal storage on my Moto G5?

My phone had run out of memory so I reformatted my SD card as internal storage. A warning message came up that my SD card was too slow and some apps would not work properly. I stupidly went ahead and formatted it and now my phone doesn't function properly. I need to remove the card and replace with one with more capacity.

Yes, if you do the the following.

You will have to move whatever you have on the card back to the phone's internal storage then convert the card back to external storage and remove it. You can then insert a new card and restart the process.

There is no way to move the data from one card over to another.
