Why do you think this would be a problem? I intend to do this on my
desktop system at some point. I thought I'd just get a new SSD and make
that my boot drive and clone the partitions over but after a little
googling it seems the conversion isn't that difficult.

For example, these instructions cover the conversion of a Ubuntu +
Windows 10 dual boot system:

My setup is a little more complicated since I have Debian and Arch in
addition to Windows 10 but I don't expect major issues. Definitely
taking an image of my boot SSD first though.
