We haven't spent a lot of time with adapter chains like what you are trying out. When we've used NVMe SSDs outside of a factory server slot, we've used an adapter such as one of these:

You probably won't find a lot of traditional debug help on these since they should be plug and play with no setup. If it works it appears, if it's not working its defective or not connected correctly.

If you need someone to test the drives themselves if it gets to that point, FedEx has a flatrate service that would cost about 9 bucks each way. I can load them onto a server to rule out the drives themselves being a problem.
