Knowing that the capacitors in my IBM PS/2 Model 80 were likely digesting my floppy drive from the inside-out, I 've really wanted to work on this system. So I started working on it last week, but didn't have the right caps:

Now that I have the right caps, let's get it recapped, rebuilt, and tested. 

And hopefully we can rebuild the potting shed 5.25" drive.
