This is a list of Capacitors for the Commodore A570 CD Drive.
it was compiled by me tearing down the drive and making a note of each capacitor location, value and voltage and not from the schematics.
All Capacitors are Through Hole
I forgot to make a note of the pitch size and each capacitor size. But i will next time i have it open again.
From memory they are quite small in height about 5-10mm, only C302 and C303 are a little taller.

The Laser module is a SF-87. There are replacements available on Aliexpress but they are different pin connections.
