You drive is acting like dead heads, also you have open the drive in a non clean environment and you have contaminated the drive, if the data has value to you I will take it to a "DR pro" is not much you can do to recover this drive, will need special equipment, convert the USB board to SATA and good chance your drive is an SED "Self Encrypted Drive"
