A good new for LSI 9361-8i series owner.
Intel RES3FV288 (PMC chipset) is compatible with LSI 9361-8i series
no further configuration need, just connect the RAID controller to RES3FV288 port 7 with SFF-8643 to SFF8643 cable
That's mean - A LSI SAS3 controller + SAS3 EXPANDER is not a dream anymore
Below is the MegaRAID Storage print screen for your inference
PS. suppose 9361-8i + RES3FV288 is working fine, most of the LSi 93xx series HBA and MegaRAID is working fine with Intel RES3 RAID expander also, either RES3FV288 (28 internal, 8 external, MD2) and RES3TV360 (36 internal, backplane)
