Most likely - blocked head on the disc surfaces.
Less likely - engine bearing damage.
Least likely - damage to the motor winding.

And once again the status of the work register and the log from the terminal after startup.

Do you have a laminar chamber?
If not, there's nothing for us here.

99% stuck head
1% motor bearing

need to open the drive in clean room and see the location of the head first

What happened between before and "now"?

Heads are gone. Possibly media damage too.
