Thanks to both. The hard drive array should be upgraded, but that
wouldn't save F7. I can't justify upgrading F7 components at ATrpms if
I know that the base components like the kernel/glibc will not be
upgraded by the upstream vendor in case of a secuity issue. Which even
wouldn't be known to me as EOL'd distributions don't get any
notifications about what security issues are there.
