Be more specific.

You can feel what from its PCB? Heat? Cold? Electricity? Intoxication?

Assuming the drive does not spin, is it drawing power? Does the rest of the computer power on correctly with the drive installed?

Do you have a multimeter to test the PCBs components? What happened to the HDD to caus failure? Does HDD emit any strange noises when power is applied? Does BSY light show when HDD is attached to MHDD?
