I've reverted to the original m/b BIOS that has been updated with the UBU tool and now I see the single Samsung 970 Pro M.2 SSD drive in the BIOS boot menu, its name appears ok.
I've checked the drive availability in the FreeBSD 12.1:

1
2
3
 
# nvmecontrol devlist
 nvme0: Samsung SSD 970 PRO 512GB
    nvme0ns1 (488386MB)
 

It seems there is some incompatibility with the Aplicata Quattro M400 adapter.

Are you sure your NVME is not DOA? Can you see it in whatever ubuntu equiv of device manager for windows is, with the drive connected as a spare/secondary?

Yes, I'm sure that the drives and adapter aren't DOA. I've written that I've checked them in another computer and there were no issues.

@arabesc - IDE: PATA SS means BIOS mods works and now your NVME is ready and bootable to the OS, now you just need to set BIOS properly and get your disk ready for OS
Here's how we do it for windows, see step #4 of the "This is what you should do" section (See Step #3 for confirmation and info about PATA SS) - [Guide] How to get full NVMe support for all Systems with an AMI UEFI BIOS

Nice, maybe your adapter is the issue! Please try to install on another adapter, with stock (non-modified BIOS), since it's NVME compatible by default

Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks!
If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM
I view the forum like this, please bump your thread 1x every 24-48 hours if no reply

FYI, it looks as "IDE: PATA SS" only with your modified BIOS, the name looks ok (as the SSD brand and model name) with stock BIOS.

I don't have another adapter to try.
I don't think it's an adapter issue but some incompatibility between the adapter and motherboard BIOS. The adapter works ok in another newer board.
