Did you replace the PCB? Does the spindle spin manually? Have you checked the motor windings with a multimeter?

If you're looking for a way to swap platters, Salvation sells a tool.

WD250s generally have 6 heads. Swapping platters is not recommended if you are an amateur and you really need the data. That's a lot of heads to load and unload simultaneously.
