Re: Capacitor question from a newbie



I may not have been entirely clear. It's a dual hard drive system, and it's my understanding that makes it difficult or impossible to simply install them into the new computer, or to use an external adapter (with it being a RAID O system). Right or wrong?...

We have a dell XPS 600 with, at a minimum, a bad motherboard. (Don't know if there are other issues, nor how to determine that one way or the other.) As is evident from the pic below, clearly we have some bad caps. We have a family member with some computer experience (a lot more than me) who said he's willing to solder in new caps, but he wants us to do the footwork as far as identifying what needs replacing and obtaining those replacements. Can one tell just by looking at the photos which need replacing, how to identify (ie name) them specifically so they can be ordered, and where's the best...
