How can you test them without removing them ?

And how can you remove them without soldering iron ???

That aside some caps can last much longer than some and never
leak so in that case I wouldn't poke around too much.Still , if cap
gets dried up and you replace it with full one something may blow up.

I wouldn't throw away that old floppy drive if it was working before
recap.That little copper square shouldn't make a difference (I don't
have mine and floppy works 100 %).

Voltages from psu (knock on wood :roflmao:) or more likely floppy cable
connection maybe ?

Or just in case that square copper thingy was jumper you can go here to check jumper settings http://dliapp.wizhut.com/blog/?
