reviewing the instructions, it references a "SetupNVMe.exe" driver, but a quick google search doesn't show it available for download ???

Looks like it is somewhere in the driver folders of the OS.

An .exe file is just an installer, but not a driver. All drivers have the extension .sys.

Maybe its just in the Server version of Windows? In the guide he went to a folder called Server 2012.
