I've got a Centris 650 that today started to claim that any CD I put in its CD-ROM drive was unreadable.
A quick google and a sniff of the inside of the drive and it's clear that the capacitors inside are probably the cause of the problem. I haven't got the tools to fix it for a couple of months but I've added it to the recapping to do list!
Just worth remembering that it's not just logic boards and analogue boards that need looking after!
Here's the cap list info already existing here on our brilliant forum: https://mac68k.info/wiki/display/mac68k/Capacitor+List#CapacitorList-SonyCDU561-25CDROM
