Uh, hi guys, I have the 9361-8i, and it's working for me (was a PITA to install as usual, but that comes with the territory). Latest (800) bios for Xenith, latest firmware on the 9361-8i, install without using the Intel SAS expander (if you have one), using Windows 2016 Standard.
Now, the various Ethernet controllers, they are a mess (can't find the Intel one even with the latest Ethernet Adapters CD), and something is missing from the Bluetooth and WiFi (like it's installed, but there are additional devices that need drivers...). Aside from that it's stable, running at 2666Mhz at the moment (had it at 29--Mhz, but I'm thinking a thermal issue slowly made it unstable).
The final trick to getting the RAID-1 (for the OS) to work (aside from giving Windows the driver on a USB stick, it needs that; and setting it as a boot device in the RAID bios) was resetting the actual RAID-1, so they'd be in sync (I mean, I had done it way earlier before, but Windows was throwing me out of Windows setup, which eventually reminded me that that happens when the two are not perfectly in sync).
