Need professional service, it's not possible any DIY solution.

Drives like this identify themselves to your BIOS with their family name which originates from the ROM. The potential problems are numerous, from firmware module header/checksum problems to bad sectors over the firmware area, head failure, motor problems and more.

You will need a pro for this, the cost of recovery against the cost of the tools and the knowledge (although not extensive) for this kind of repair will make a simple pro recovery seem like pocket change.

Drive is recognized by factory name. You can not fix this one on your own. You will need Pro help in this repair sorry to say this one to you.
