PXE at the top of BIOS boot sequence

I was wondering what happens if we put PXE as the top boot order priority ( before HDD) ? Every time a server reboots, will the server try to PXE boot and not boot from the HDD ( assume that there is an OS loaded in the HDD)

Boot order priority will just try whichever device you put in order until one is found that is bootable. So if PXE has no bootable info then it will try the next one in the list.

Priority is just that. It tries in order until it succeeds regardless of whether ones lower down in the list (I.e. your HDD) are bootable or not.
