The patters need to be stored in a dust free environment which when you opened the can lost! The head runs across the platters with very little clearance and dust on the surface is like you hitting a bolder as big as your car head on a a mountain road at night.

So how to fix your drive? At this point the platters and the data may still be OK, but the head assembly is gone!

You need special fixtures to hold the drive and prevent the heads from scratching the disk platters. These are custom tools which you’ll need to contact the drive maker to get these are also expensive!

'''So how to fix your drive?''' At this point the platters and the data on them may still be OK, but the head assembly is gone! You’ll need to find a second exact same series drive to salvage the head assembly to replace the now damaged unit and the real issue was likely an amp issue on the logic board so you would need to replace that as well. You need special fixtures to hold the drive and prevent the heads from scratching the disk platters. These are custom tools which you’ll need to contact the drive maker to get or have custom made if you understand what’s required. Both are expensive to do!
Unless the data on the drive was important its not economical to fix and you still have to create a clean room which is cleaner that what a hospital operating theater offers to work within.
Basically, you need to get your drive to a specialist who offers data recovery services and letting them fix the drive. Be aware this is expensive!
