So I own a slim 20xx which has 2x NEC Tokins on the top + 2x on the bottom of the board.

I want to replace ALL 4 Nec Tokin caps.

(0) Should I just replace the NEC Tokins on the top ? Or should I replace the bottom ones too ? Does it hurt if I change them all ?

(1) How many of these Tantalum caps do I need ? 16 ? They should be 330uF ?

(2) Are the Tantalum caps mentioned in (1) durable ? what's the best cap to use here ?

(3) The top and the bottom of the board where the NEC Tokins are should look like this :?

(4) In the above picture 470uF caps are used...I should use 330uF caps ?

Many Thanks
