First it is a NVMe disk but there is a driver for this:

https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/3c9168fa8e9c30d55b3aa2fde74bd7da46df53f5

Although this is no news the driver is not installed on my system (I did a fresh
install in 2016). So I wonder if the driver is actually part of the installation
DVD/USB.

The following is what he gets when he boots after disabling the nvidia card and UEFI:
