NVME backend isn't supported by Truenas yet, as you cannot select it as a backend for virtual disks (being either files or zdev). Passing through a PCI-e controller is not a solution since I assume you want to boot from it, so.How about using nvme as backend? bhyve on FreeBSD 12.1 can use nvme as controller.
It should be addressed because NVME emulation might bring performance gains on Windows machines particularly even when the virtual disk is hosted on spinning disks, because of its simplicity with respect to AHCI or SCSI.
