Yes, and it's been this way for Intel Rapid Storage Controller driver I know all the way back to Gen 4 which is the first core cpu I ever had. (Probably further back than that).. The correct driver version for any given machine depends on the generation of the cpu.
examples of IRST versions Gen8-9 Gen10-11 Gen11-13
and so on
AMD has their own raid/vmd driver which is also dependent on its CPUs.
If one does not want to use a RAID/VMD array, change disk mode in bios to AHCI, install windows normally, the drives will be detected and will use the MS driver built into the install media. The MS driver has been proven to perform just as well as IRST. I do this on all my clean installs. In fact, on one of my systems the numbers are better using the MS driver. (Note if one uses optane, IRST is always required)
If one does not plan on using a Raid setup, Another added benefit of not using IRST driver is it allows a user to utilize any storage controller driver/software package from the manufacturer of their drive, such as the Samsung nvme driver and Samsung Magician.
