I formatted my drives in ext4. Refer to this link for more help, https://nvmexpress.org/open-source-nvme-management-utility-nvme-command-line-interface-nvme-cli/. I also found an article on Phoronix https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=sabrent-rocket4-linux&num=1 that specifically mentions your drive. I have the benefit that my laptop came from System76 who used parts that are designed for Linux. The second drive that I specifically reformatted with nvme-cli was in an Intel NUC that I outfitted with a Samsung 970 EVO Plus. I later installed Windows 10 without issue on that drive and its firmware updated with Intel's firmware update utliity in the NUC. The third NVME drive I have used was a Crucial P5 1TB 3D NAND NVMe Internal SSD, I've used the 'nvme-cli' utilities on all three drives.
Get a drive enclosure. Sabrent makes them for M.2 PCIe NVMe drives and perform the update with someone else's Windows machine. They cost less than $30.
