Is this drive recoverable?
Partial or complete recovery?

Partial recovery IF the other side is in good condition.

Unfortunately dust from visible side will be on other side too in near future.
Before head replacement you have to carefully clean both sides of platter.

If it was one sided then how did the damage happen? Did it actually have the top head and was just disabled in ROM?
