My Book Studio corrupted drive, help needed

Hi all, hope you are doing well.

My external My Book Studio Firewire died on me and I lost 3tb of my files (mainly RAW photos).
I have read somewhere that I could try and use the drive in an enclosure so I did.
Unfortunately my computer (Mac) is not recognising the drive. I can hear it spinning but that is about it.

Some told me I could try and replace the controller that comes with the My Book Studio but am not sure where I could find the exact same one. Any ideas? This drive is and older model from what I know.
I would appreciate any help.

Few photos attached.
