Looks like the controller chip inside your external drive is damaged (not the HDD drive itself). If the HDD drive would have been damaged it would give you the message that there is no disk entered.

You can not fix a harddisk yourself, so it´s the end of your HDD. Do NEVER open a harddisk by the way...
