Dell Presision 5490 context, 4 USB4 ports.
(All the external media mentioned are USB 3.2/3.1 compatible as well.)
OWC's Express 1M2 (a portable NVme M.2 based USB4 SSD)
Used as FreeBSD boot media, no other media plugged into USB4 ports at this point.

| `--- nvme0 INNOGRIT Corporation NVMe SSD Controller IG5236 [RainierPC]
. . .
Plugging some examples into a different USB4 port as well . . .
(2 are Titan Ridge DD 2018, one is Goshen Ridge 2020)
TREBLEET's USB4 40Gbps Compatible with Thunderbolt 3 to U.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure

(The media [nvme* and xhci*] is not visible under FreeBSD as stands.)
. . .
OWC's Envoy Pro FX (a portable NVme M.2 based SSD) instead:

(The media [nvme* and xhci*] is not visible under FreeBSD as stands.)
. . .
OWC's Thunderbolt Hub (nothing plugged into it) instead:
. . .
|--- pcib4 Intel Corporation Meteor Lake-P Thunderbolt 4 PCI Express Root Port
| `--- pcib11 Intel Corporation Thunderbolt 4 Bridge [Goshen Ridge 2020]

| |--- pcib15 Intel Corporation Thunderbolt 4 Bridge [Goshen Ridge 2020]
| `--- pcib16 Intel Corporation Thunderbolt 4 Bridge [Goshen Ridge 2020]
. . .
Same hub with the 2 Titan Ridge DD 2018 media plugged in:
(USB 3.2 or such media work but do not show up as pci at all.)

| | `--- pcib17 Intel Corporation JHL7440 Thunderbolt 3 Bridge [Titan Ridge DD 2018]
| `--- pcib16 Intel Corporation Thunderbolt 4 Bridge [Goshen Ridge 2020]
(The media [nvme* and xhci*] are not visible under FreeBSD as stands.)
. . .
But the "missing" nvme* and xhci* involving Titan Ridge DD 2018 can show up . . .
Same hub with all 3 media plugged in before booting, booting through the Thunderbolt hub:
(So no USB media directly in any USB4 port of the Dell P. 5490.)

nda1 is the external boot media below. nda3 is the internal media
that has the factory Ubuntu on it. nda0 and nda2 are the media
that previously did not show up.
