Depending on your motherboard you can plug them in directly. With an older motherboard you need a PCiE adaptor card that supports multiple NVME devices.

Be careful however, there are at least two flavours of NVME drive. A PCiE flavour which is very fast, and a SSD flavour which isn't. You want the PCiE flavour if possible.

In either case they are detected as ordinary HDD drives and you need do nothing out of the ordinary other than it's preferable to not put a swap partition on them for wear reasons.
