You're going to think I am joking but I am not. Multiple people have sworn to me that this works for a common failure mode of HDD drives and I've literally never heard someone say they tried it and it failed. I've never tried it. Buyer beware. Don't blame me if you fuck up your drive / your computer it's connected to / anything else even worse by doing this:

1. Stick it in the freezer for a short while.
2. Take it out.
3. Boot it up.
4. If it works, get all the data off it as quick as you can.

I already tried to swap circuit boards in identical Seagate ide drives and not only it worked to recover the data but technically that windows 98 PC still boots today (I turn it on once a year because I have a very old SCSI film scanner that doesn't work with newer stuff)

You should try the experience, I used ddrescue to create an image

You can’t fuck it up more so why not?

Do it! Yeah start with the mother board and see what happens and then open the fucker up and replace the try to move the platters to working drive. You don’t have anything to lose so why not. For a quick and dirty clean room run the shower really hot for a few minutes to make a bunch of steam and then wait for the humidity to naturally equalize, boom you got a few minutes to do your swap job.

Since you got your data off that drive, there is no way to make it worse. So sure, go ahead and open it up and learn something. But I think you're underestimating the flimsiness of the mechanics inside. It's like nanometers clearance between the read heads and the surface of the platters. You won't get it right without expensive equipment. And changing the PCBs is probably not going to change anything if it's a mechanical failure.

I don't think you are going to have any more luck if it is clicking. What is the file system?
