New firmware was released on 08/11/2011 for the SAS2208 dual core ASIC
based cards, the 9265-8i and 9285-8i. I'd say the odds are good that
the OP's card(s) shipped with the original firmware, given this one was
released exactly two months ago today.
Complete list of bug fixes and enhancements in this firmware:

I didn't count them but it looks like a few hundred, which makes this a
major product refresh, and seems to indicate the original firmware for
these two cards was a bit buggy. This is the 2nd firmware release.
