First, you need a "clean room", and all of the support equipment, then you can open the old drive, remove the platters and connect them to a "new" drive of the exact same physical characteristics. But then, it's a complex process and you'll need someone to do it for you.

A small, properly equipped clean room should only cost a few hundred thousand dollars.
