Kranthi and I took another look at the PCIe slots on the mobo and it turns out that the two PCIe slots that we had plugged the M.2 drive and SSD into were linked to CPU2, whereas the database server was only configured with one CPU, which was put in CPU1. From pages 2-19 and 2-20 of the [http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/Socket2011-R3/Z10PE-D16/Manual/E10401_Z10PE-D16_Series_UM_V2_WEB.pdf mobo datasheeet], we put the M.2 drive in PCIE1 and the SSD in PCIE3, where are both linked to CPU1 and tried the installation process again.
This time, two new drives showed up in the partitioner (/dev/nvme0n1 and /dev/nvme1n1), but they're both listed as unknown (their capacities, however, are displayed as 400.1 GB and 512.1 GB respectively, which technically identifies the first as the SSD and the second as the M.2 drive). Going back to section 2.5 of the mobo datasheet suggests that we should assign each device in the expansion slot an IRQ (from my understanding, an IRQ is a number from 0 to 15 that marks the priority level of the device).
