Hey all I am building my first custom build with a EVGA mobo and saw that this mobo has 2 U.2 ports on it. I ordered some u.2 to 4 sata splitters and connected it to my drives but they dont show up on windows? 
 
Am i suppose to config something in the bios ? 
 
Mobo : EVGA X299 Dark
CPU: 10940X Intel 
RAM: 32 GB
HDD: M.2 NVM connected and a sata connected, trying to add drives through a u.2 sas to sata splitter 
connectors : CableCreation Internal HD Mini SAS (SFF-8643 Host) - 4X SATA (Target) Cable,SFF-8643 to 4X SATA Cable,1.6ft, SFF-8643 for Controller, 4 Sata Connect to Hard Drive  ( from amazoz.ca)

    You bought 12G SAS to SATA cables, not NVME U.2 cables.  U.2 ports cannot provide SATA.
