Duplicate Standard NVME Storage Controller Driver Question

I just installed a second NVME drive in my machine. Windows added a second Standard NVM Express Storage Controller driver, showing in Device Manager. I just want to make sure that is normal or is one somehow a duplicate that I can delete.

I have two NVME drives in my system 1.
I have two instances of the NVME controller in Device Manager.
Whether that is proper or not, I can't say. But it may be.
