Hello.  I have an Apple 3.5 Drive disassembled.  It is the 800K,
external, platinum, 3.5" drive.  On some of the sliding parts, there is
some sort of grease.  I was thinking I might remove the old grease and
put on new grease.  It's not dried up.  I am just thinking more along
the lines of preventive maintenance.
    What kind of grease do I need to get, and can I get it at Radio
Shack?
