LSI provides (provides) a large number of SAS/SATA controllers under LSI and the 3Ware brand belonging to hardware RAID. Obviously, almost until today No product for PCI bus can survive, because the possible maximum theoretical PCI bandwidth of 133 MB/s will become the bottleneck of the bottleneck transmission. However, if you really need it, you can use PCI- in the PCI 3.3V slot. X controller.
As a rough rule of thumb, anything with at least battery support (or capacitor support or flash memory support) write caching options is a “real” hardware RAID controller.
I am looking for a real hardware SATA RAID controller that can do level 0, level 1, and level 5, and due to lack of a better term, it is for the operating system “Transparent” because it does not require any software drivers. Does such a beast exist? If so, I would appreciate some suggestions. I hope they are PCI because our PCIe slots are very limited.
Thank you for your help.

The term you are looking for is “non-fakeraid”. Nothing requires absolutely no drivers, but hardware raid controllers only need drivers for storage operations, and there is no software implementation of RAID functions. < p>
