we tried this with a Dell H200 (also LSI2008 based).
however, running some basic benchmarks, we saw no immediate difference
between IT and IR firmware.
so i'd like to know: what kind of performance improvement do you get,
and how did you measure it it?
thanks a lot

(we found out what is described here the hard way)

I'm hoping to get some feedback on the Dell H310 (LSI SAS2008 chipset).
Based on searching I'd done previously I got the impression that people
generally recommended avoiding it in favour of the higher specced H710
(LSI SAS2208 chipset).
Purely based on the controller chip it should be OK.
We are using Supermicro's with that chip and are happy about it.
( We have 2xSSD and 10x1TB disk)
Note that we are using a JBOD firmware, not sure if DELL provides that.
You can flash it with any firmware, our IBM controller uses firmware from supermicro (because IBM doesn't provide IT FW for it)
I wouldn't use it for bunch of SSDs but for spinners performance is fine
