Hello 
I've acquired a cheap Shuttle shoebox - it's currently working well, but as I plan on running it 24/7 for as long as possible, would a re-capping to be on the safe side be a good idea?
Here's a pic of the board with the capacitors and values circled:

On my board, the yellow (10v 1500uF) caps are OSTs, and given their locations, I'm heavily leaning towards replacing them first.
The ones marked in red (6.3v 1800uF) in the pic are Sanyos.
I'll have to check the PSU out later...
Thanks for any advice,
Rob.
