if you can remove it from the enclosure why not just put in a computer?

I took it apart and got the drive itself out and tried it in my computer where it wasn't detected either during start-up, or by Windows.

as you can see, i already tried that and it didn't work

the external hard-drive enclosure still works fine, as i've tried another drive in it and that clearly starts to boot up

something to do with the drive itself is damaged, which people mostly believe to be the circuit board (it's definitely power related, not mechanical)

i just need to figure out how i can save it myself, or whether i should get it done professionally
