HDD controller died, how to read the data?

The controller from Hitachi JPT50e died.
How to read data?
Are there any other options besides purchasing a replacement controller?
Maybe they have some kind of compatibility?
I’ll make a reservation right away that I’m waiting for answers from people who had their own experience in solving a similar problem.
I can’t take advice from the pros seriously, because. to determine the pros in front of me or not is not able, and to give client data to anyone anyhow is shameful. Moreover, the pros will easily answer my question.

Three simple steps: do not touch the screw, save money, take it to the professionals.

No, there is no compatibility. And just a donor is not enough. You will also need to rewrite or re-solder the memory with service information about the disk.
If you need data - roll out the backup.
If there is no backup (Does a level 30+ system administrator have no backup? O_o) - then give it to specialists in this field. Otherwise, ditch the data irretrievably.

Tips turn to the pros can not be taken seriously

There will be no other advice.
Recovered a few years ago the data of a dead HDD from a professional homeworker. The result is positive. It's good that I had a donor - exactly the same HDD, but alive. For 3 days through the serial port, he pulled out 90-95% of the information - that was enough.
It is determined whether this is a pro, elementary. He must have:
1. A lot of donor disks.
2. Dust-free workplace - a closed table with an inflow through a filter
3. A stand for connecting to the HDD through service pins
4. Soldering station.
5. Programmer
If this is not the case, turn around and leave.
Similar equipment, only in a much larger volume, was in the workshop where this homeworker Kulibin sent me with the second question. He did not undertake data recovery from a dead flash drive. The workshop pulled information out of her.
Both the first and the second time it was critical unique business information that I did not know about before the accident. And so there were no backups. More precisely, in the case of the HDD, they were, but on the same HDD ...
The price of the issue starts at $ 200, and if your disk has a photo in a corporate party and the client's favorite music, you shouldn't bother.
