There is paravirtulized support in FreeBSD 11.2 and 12 but you need to
sideload the virtio drivers into windows. Sadly microsoft doesn't ship with
them even with how "cloud" focused they are. Ahci-hd will allow you to get
around this. I know we had some restrictions in the past on needing
specific virt-io drivers for windows I'm not sure if that is fixed now. I
think nvme paravirtual might also just work with windows but haven't
confirmed that lately.
