Cannot boot a converted Gen 2 VM

I converted a VMWare Workstation 14 VM to Hyper-V (vhdx). Although I can boot and use it in a Gen 1 Hyper-V VM, I cannot get it to work in a Gen 2 VM.

My understanding is booting to a SCSI disk is not possible via Hyper-V, when although this worked in VMWare. I am then limited to booting a Gen 1 VM using IDE controllers. In a nutshell...is there going to be a performance hit here? Would I recognize any performance lagging compared to using this same vdisk in a VMWare-based VM?

In research, someone created a Gen 1/Gen 2 conversion script 5-6 years ago...a) will it still work with today's tech/software, b) is it necessary to do a conversion?

Basic VM characteristics...

2 processors
4GB RAM
45GB disk
