question about /home on separate drive

[Wade Smart]

Great. Ok. Next one:

This is my current fstab:
# /home was on /dev/sda7 during installation
UUID=### /home  ext4 realtime 0 2

I can just mark out the above and put
UUID=###-of-old-partition /home ext3 realtime 0 2

Is that correct?

(first time doing this so, want to get it right :D)
