Hi, wanna to ask... got big problem

I have connected a power cord wrongly to my HDD, so when i turn it on, it smelled like burning and i saw little smoke on top of it... the result is: its dead!!

have i destroyed my HDD?? can i just change the small 'motherboard' on the HDD to a new one, or a secondhand, in order to get back to 'life'?

because i really think the HDD is not yet corrupted, only the 'HDD motherboard', because the smoke just came from it, not from other part. I have try to reconnect and on it again and again, but its remain dead... no sign of life.. non!

please someone?
