We use a combination of Adaptec, LSI, and 3ware at work, all three work
great, 3ware has the least expensive of the three and also has the best
interface for managing the controller.

We also use software RAID though, which works just as well (better than
hardware RAID in some configurations, such as SSD). If you're looking to
provide uptime or simply a larger partition go with software RAID, if
you're looking to protect your data, use backups.
