There are 5 electrolytic caps on these drives; all have 2.5mm lead spacing, 5mm diameter and 6mm height. Not all values are being manufactured with those dimensions any more, so in some cases you'll need to lay the replacements on their side in order to fit (C104, for example).

Thankfully minimal disassembly is needed to replace these, just the disk carrier (which you need to remove when relubricating these drives anyway). The photo below shows this carrier removed for clarity.

Click the More Information button to the right to be taken to a Digi-Key list with the necessary parts.
