NVMe drive not loading Kernel driver

I have installed 3 NVMe drives on my computer and I'm able to locate all the drives when executing lspci, the problem is that not all of them load the NVMe kernel so they will not be presented as a usable NVMe device.



For example, when listing all the PCIe devices, the drives appear as :



8f:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Sandisk Device 0100
9c:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Sandisk Device 0100
9d:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Sandisk Device 0100


From the 3 drives, only 9c:00.0 appears when executing lsblk as [nvme0n1 259:0 0 234G 0 disk] , the other ones don't appear to load the nvme Kernel driver. Below the each drive property and which kernel is in use [highlighted between ** **]
