I am more AMD - Nvidia guy, Except the computer I got in 2005 (AMD Athlon 64 + ATI radeon) later computers I ever own AMD CPU + Nvidia card.
Also got Linux and Windows installed on 2 separate sata SSD, I don’t own a NVME drive on my computer, I’m too poor to buy one 
My experience cloning various OS from HDDs, I’m mostly using licensed Aomei backupper, which it does don’t know anything about XFS or EXT4, but he dummy copy data from one disk to another. So far so good, it’s getting it’s dirty work done. So no problems after all.
