Hi pals,
I found a Maxoptics TMT3 1300 optical SCSI device; I'm very proud of this finding.
I did some cleaning, tested the PSU that demonstrated to have a good +5V +12V then I decided to turn it on. Suddenly a nasty smell came out of the drive, the smell was the same old stuff that comes out of Mac's PSUs.
I opened it and I found this "thing" that looks like a sort of capacitor to me, weird since it has 4 pins .... Yes, I cleaned it up after taking the pics.
It's close to the input Molex.
Can some expert here help me? How can i replace this thing?
thanks
