Diamond disc to cut tile

Hi I've bought a Diamond disc for my angle grinder to cut a couple of tiles (got a proper manual type cutter for full length cuts)

But I had to rush in b&q as it was closing and I got one that says it's for brick/concrete will this do or will it just ruin the tile?

Thanks
Dave

It depends Dave,

If the blade is segmented it might chip the tile slightly when cutting it.

Tile cutting diamond blades are normally not segmented (or have tiny slits in the diamond segment), which gives a smoother cut.
