They are dirt cheap on ebay, from Hong Kong with free shipping. I would go all the way and max it out. I would also recommend that you go for a light weight DM such as XFCE which you can install from EPEL, this will help a fair bit on that older hardware with the performance as opposed to gnome 3.

| this lt came with oos 7 already installed. after i tricked the oos 7 | partition a few times to reduce size, i repartitioned drive with oos | down to sda1= 1.6 GB system, sda2= 43.0 GB oos 7, sda4= 8.4 GB recovery, | sda3= extended sda5= 1.1 GB boot, sda6= 3.1 GB swap, sda7 thru | sda10= 11 GB linux os, sda11= 84 GB home, sda12= 66 GB open use. if you have a NAS available you could "dd" the the hdd to .img and free up the space. Personally I would pull it, resources permitting, and replace with a another hdd, say 7200 or 10k rpm to buy some speed. Not sure if your system will support a ssd but might be worth a look. Then again, depending on use, there is the consideration of diminishing return of value for so old a system when a newer system can be obtained for https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] LSI SATA MegaRaid & Centos 7 build 1511
On 07/28/2016 03:42 PM, Fawzy Ibrahim wrote: So; there's no hope to install Centos 7 on this H/W? You need to better identify the card and determine if it's one of the drivers that was dropped. If so, you'd have to build a driver disk and maintain your own driver builds for each kernel update. It's not "no hope" exactly, but it would probably take a moderate amount of experience to keep running. I'd be wary of hardware used as far back as CentOS 5, but I don't see driver changes between RHEL 6 and 7 that I'd expect to impact an LSI Megaraid card. The old "megaraid" driver was dropped in RHEL 6, leaving just the megaraid_sas driver in 6 and 7. If you run release 6 on that system (boot a live image), look at "lspci" and "lsmod" output. The latter will tell you what drivers are in use, and should be useful to tracking down support in release 7. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
